Let me start by saying that over cables like planet waves, proel and other cheap cables that I have tried....Lava stands as the best...I was not expecting much of this cable when I got it since I was not pleased with high end cables like Planet Waves that gets damaged from only 3 months of using. I have bought three planet waves cable and even the 20ft with circuit breaker. And they all seem to break down after months of playing.
I got the Clear Connect Cable, which has the orange rubber plug cover. Man, these cables are tough. Just by looking at the cables, you can say that it is perfectly built to withstand brutality. I think they are using PVC pipes just like planet waves but these are sturdy.
The sound of these cables, I can say, is well balanced. It retains the highs and lows. The highs are now being fed through the amp and I why I'm saying that? It's because even if I turned off the OD (used as clean boost), the signal doesn't have any volume loss which is a good thing as I can now use my OD to sound like an OD, not as a clean boost. And when I used my dist, the gain seems to flow from the box like there are no other pedals in the chain. The sound is so crisp that my gain is only at 9 o'clock and I can still have the "chug"... I am using the 15ft and the 12ft cable and there has been no difference from the two. These cables are extremely well made, a very musical cable I can say. And I recommend this cable to anyone that wants their tone preserved.
I love this cable! Nagtunog ordinary ang planet waves cable when we a/b'ed it with this cable.Wah! naka Planet waves ako... na circuit breaker... this thread is starting to get into my head! :-D
The price is very reasonable :-)
Nako, this thread is going to be hard for me to avoid. Ma GAGAS attack ako nito... been thinking of getting one but I'm really not sure if I shoudl get one, I mean in my state na callege palang at hindi naman mayaman. ^^ Wah! naka Planet waves ako... na circuit breaker... this thread is starting to get into my head! :-D
according to sir turi...it's even better than George L's 8-)
kaya nga ipon ako for these hot cables!!! :-D
And theyre REALLY NEAT AND NICE TO LOOK AT.
To an extent, yes. They are more balanced. George L's are known to add some highs.
This is one of the misconceptions about cables. Cables don't add anything to your signal, what they do (the good ones) is transmit the signal on a 1:1 ratio. If you think about it, how can the cable add a frequency that is not there in the first place? When people say the George L's add high frequency, what they're really hearing is the TRUE full frequency range of the signal. It doesn't add high freq and presence its just showing what's really there but was not represented by the low end cable. I did a comparison a while back using the high end cables (lava, two rock, GL's etc.) and IMHO and the people that were with me the GL's is the best of the bunch. For the test I used analog synths (SH101 to test the lows, Korg MS20 for the highs and transient response and a guitar straight to amp.
CLEAR CONNECT

cable shoot out na rin! :lol:
We did this last night. Itchybrain, Markv, Turi, Saturn/Return, The_Nong, and I.
Iba talaga. Parang tumitira ka ng F1 sa service road laban sa Passenger Jeep. The myth was proven wrong, it doesn't matter how long your cable is!

seriously bro? how did you prove it? :-)
curious din ako. Also, with or without pedals in between?
seriously bro? how did you prove it? :-)What we did was we took one guitar and one amp. Fender Strat and I think it was Tweed Fender Tube Amp. Played a series of the same 4 chords and 1 lick through different cables: Fender 20ft, Vox 10ft, Lava (entry) 15ft , Lava High End 20ft.
nagawa na pala, may video or pics kayo last night? :lol:Itchybrain brought his DSLR. But he left before The_Nong arrived. He took a video through our boards just to show was was in 'em. But no sound clips/video, wala daw si masterchoxter eh. Hehe.

The outcome: (In my opinion)
Fender - Balanced, clear but output not very prominent.
Vox - Higher output but a bit muddy. (This is mine)
Lava (Entry) - Clear
Lava High End - It's like you bought a BB Sonic Maximizer and a natural clean boost.
For what I know is as a rule of thumb on cables, the shorter it is the better - Main instrument cables, patch cables. and speaker cables. Im sticking with guitar cables and related subjects. This is what I know. So we tested the following equiment:
I will do more tests with other cables and amps as often as I can. Please bear in mind that these cables are an investment. But I can guarantee that you wont be disappointed with the quality it delivers.
i think the rule of thumb with cables that shorter is better still stands. the reason why the 20ft Lava stood out among the rest was due to the sheer quality of the cable as compared to the others.
@turi - i think it would also be nice if you tested cables that are in league with the Lava. such would be GL's, Mogami and even Zaolla (if i recall correctly, Poundcake has one)
the EB last SUnday was Saturn Return's idea. I really appreciate those who attended the RB. I just thought that it was a great one and I did a demo on the cables. I did this at PJC music too. Here's what happened:
Guitars:
Elegee Telecaster
Gibson R9
Cables:
Planet waves 15 ft with circuit breaker
Gibson Custom Cable 10ft
Amp: mesa Boogie Blue Angel
Above mentioned provided by
For what I know is as a rule of thumb on cables, the shorter it is the better - Main instrument cables, patch cables. and speaker cables. Im sticking with guitar cables and related subjects. This is what I know. So we tested the following equiment:
Fender Jap Strat Standard all stock
Rolexm's ibanez 7 string
Mark V's RG.
Cables tested:
Vox - 10ft
Planet waves 13 ft
Planet waves 10 ft
Fender 15 feet
Lava Blue demon (entry level)
Lava Clear Connect 20ft
"Clearly" as witnessed by the ones who attended the demo that, the Lava Clear Connect was better than the ones mentioned. Notes are clear. Balanced Lows, Mids and Highs. "Walang naiipit na tunog". The volume that came out was even significantly boosted.
Tested on Fender Blues Deluxe, Marshal 50watt solid state. These were the only amps available at the studio.
I will do more tests with other cables and amps as often as I can. Please bear in mind that these cables are an investment. But I can guarantee that you wont be disappointed with the quality it delivers.
I'm sure to get one. But hey guys, would about 3ft total of patch cables make a difference???
hmmm, kung malaki talaga difference pwede pero kung slight lang pwede ng palagpasin... feed us g.a.s. :lol:
hmmm, kung malaki talaga difference pwede pero kung slight lang pwede ng palagpasin... feed us g.a.s. :lol:
MALAKI :evil:
... nakapila na nga ako sa order eh. :wink:
ipon mode din muna ako. pedals first. but sure as hell i'll get Lava before it's all over. :-D
try cables first. it will compliment all your gear. i promise you that.
problem is, i have no gear at the moment. just guitar and amp. :-D
it's the perfect way to start. let's meet soon at AP pioneer. Ill bring my lava. Against their titanium series. I have yet to hear that too tho. lol.
turi the man!

Then you MUST try Lava in between.
but right now, i'm thinking of having a Lava-fused pedalboard.
sana may mabibilan dito sa pinas na paisa isa lang na patch cable
hehe :D
Do it, bitches! You'll love it.
haha yung maga wala pang Lava cables d'yan
(http://smileyicons.net/s/386.gif)
hahah! so it means we're out?? :lol: :lol:
I just ordered this, limited space. 50 pieces agad sa akin eh. LOL
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c202/turiguiliano/LAVACABLE/LavaCableSation-1.jpg)
hmm.. dun ba yun sa plug? or the cable mismo? or both? what if i combine klotz cable with lava plug? or neutrik plug to a lava cable?
Iba size ng cable ng Lava for the plugs. Theyre much smaller.
ow... hmm.. pagiipunan ko to.. medyo mahal e.. haha..

Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten.
I think this is a bit OT, pero I have a question. What if I have a buffer pedal i.e. Mi audio boost n buff. Would a high end cable still be a big difference? I was thinking that the buffer thingy would only recover the lost signal from the amp to pedal board(w/c means the board to guitar will be the one that's in trouble). Any insights? Kasi If I buy a Lava cable I'd only have budget for 1 tapos matagalan pa ako makakuha.
Gonna be a lava cable user soon. :-D
Next year VOVOX.
Yes, there's a significant difference in using 'high end' cables. But, I have always suggested to people who ask, that you get two cables when you order. That way, it will be more balanced. Assuming you still have the same cables on your pedal board. This is what I suggested to my friend Saturn Return. Upgrade/invest in your main instrument cables first before the pat cables. Helps a real lot.
If you do get only one, in your case, from board to amp, there's still a good change in your signal. Notes clearer. Low, mids, and highs are balanced. Imagine if you had two.
I've got my friend's MI Audio Boost n Buff with me. I will try that.:lol: :lol: :lol:

Id be glad to do another demo. I am available during Sunday's with a week's advanced notice because I have to reserve a studio for that.
Ah, now that's an entirely different story my man. I'll be doing the same thing soon. Probably this year. It's a pricey investment. Distributor or not. I'll be trying out the Lava Rock Option with the VOVOX for additional protection. But it will be for the Sonorous Protect A.
Yeah, i'd like that rock option in red. Too bad we didn't do it with my ordered cables, i'd like red sana.
Gonna be a lava cable user soon. :-D
Next year VOVOX.
and i would be very much interested with your "monsters" :-D
Sorry to tell you but the reason i'm switching cables, because my monsters are not monsters anymore, just the cables nalang, the plugs are different already, had to change them since the tips of the monster plugs broke off. So naging talo yung sound niya, basura siya bro. Mag lava ka na rin lang. :-D(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c202/turiguiliano/TGP%20EMOTICONS/love.gif)(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c202/turiguiliano/TGP%20EMOTICONS/wave-1.gif)

sir turi buzz mo ko pag may sobra hehehe
Arriving this weekend people. :-D
Sweet. This will be an exciting weekend :-)
TONE IS IN THE LAVA!:-D
kahit Pathfinder 15W lang amp ko, dinig talaga! \m/
A few more weeks and I can finally join this here thread. :evil: :evil:
may i ask, im currently using planetwaves na cable, 2 unBased on experience.. YES!
guitar > 3efx (generic patch cables) > amp
kung ang papalitan ko ung cables from guitar to efx and efx to amp ng lava, will there be a huge improvement?
hindi true bypass ung gears ko ha.
kung may lava nako at ung patch naman palitan ko, will there be a huge improvement or minimal nalang?
and ask ko rin, pag naka distortion bako may difference parin? o baka sa cleans lang nakakaafect nyan?

i think if you backread a little, you will see that cables have significant effect on your signal. higher end cables usually clear up or enhance your signal as against low-to-mid end cables. :-)Muwahaha! I VANT TO EXVERIECE THIS! Pero onga, what if you have a dedicated buffer pedal? hindi ba mejo mababaliwala ung amp to effects?

thanks to all the replies!
And my 20 foot cable beat the 18 ft Klotz Titanium just to let you guys know.
This thread excites me everytime I open it. :-D :-D :-D :-D (eager!)
what's the difference between the Lava ELC and the Clear Connect? can't seem to see the Clear Connect in lavacable.com...ELC lang yung nakikita ko.. :-)
Clear Connect = solder free. Included in my distribution list. Order multiple items, discounts will be provided.
ELC = Soldered. Not on my list. Can't help with discounts.
Quality / tone = same.

anybody here who tried the retrocoil? I'm planning to save up for Lava Cables. I'm currently using Klotzs.
I hope I can try those Lavas soon.
Sir Jun Reyes who bought my avatar and mesa head tried it. Versus an 18FT Klotz Titanium Cable. He ordered another Lava. Arriving next week.
oks Turi. will save up for LAVAs. thanks :-)
meron palang 8 and 10 ft tweeds, I saw it on their website, very nice!
Thanks. I will see if what you mentioned are in the dealer list. One thing for sure is I can bring those in for you. :-D
that's great! I'll just text when I'm ready. Thanks again. :-)
up for turi see you next week

yan ang sagot ni Turi sakin before. :-)
Dang the Mini ELC's really make a big difference in the board!
Yes i knew that, Hehehe, nag taka lang ako why you prefered teh soldered ones. Mojo? :lol: :lol: Pogi kaya nung orange :lol: :lol: :lol:
Dang the Mini ELC's really make a big difference in the board!
I guess at the time I thought the soldered ones were more durable. Unlike the unsoldered ones sa board kasi, yung instrument cables hinahatak hatak lagi. Mahilig ako magpalit palit ng guitar so my old cables crapped out on me a lot. :DOooohh, I see. Your right on that one!

I had my Lava cables ordered approximately 2 weeks ago, but I only had the chance to test it fully this day at practice. My band mates at church kept teasing me for buying a 2k+ cable(cable lang yan!), but off course I did not mind the teasing. This is just a quick and short testimony of what I experienced when using my Lava cables. I used an Epi LP std through an Laney LV300(SS) and my other peds (as seen on the pics above). I inspected kaagad ung clean tone ko dahil un ang pinaka concern ko, and truth be told here... I felt the difference,I heard what the cables did!It felt really balanced for me dahil ang arte arte ko sa tone(although hindi ako magaling). Then going to a mild drive setting (DANO), here is where it gets interesting. Some of us rely on gain to get that sweet sustain+a just a hint of feedback right? Well guys what I did was I plucked a note (3G string E note) and did a mild vibrato just to enhance the sound and i was really surprised that It sustained big time and made a sweet singing feedback! It was surprising because I was only using mild drive (T.O.D.) and I never achieved that kind of thing till I used my Lava! Now I know some of us are thinking "Yeah right, a cable can do wonders" or "Ek ek lang yan, pampapogi" or some other stuff, pero I'm convinced that Lava ain't your ordinary guitar cable. I'm not saying your cables suck if it ain't lava (hindi ka naman gagaling kahit ung tig 11k usd ang cable mo eh!) pero this thing really delivers great! Nuff said, just do your self a favor and atleast TRY one! AGAIN, I'M NOT SAYING LULUPIT KA SA CABLES NA ITO, PERO IT REALLY IS HIGH END TO MY EARS.

P.S. Thanks to sir Lorenzo for introducing these babies! :\m/:
Tsk.... May pag sisisi ako sa Lava..................wahaha! kala ko kung ano na? :? un naman pala eh.. very well said! :wink:
And it's that I didn't get them sooner! HAHAHA!
@kinko di kamag sisisi jan. Usually I dont use my amp's distortion, pero right now, I dig it, kasi lumalabas ung tunog niya(no exaggerations here!)
My simple review. I could easily do my two handed technique with not much effort now when i started using the lava cables, a lot of those frequencies i've been missing all this time just finally came out of the cables. Tone now is crisp and clear.OT lng
I'm not an endorser but, lava cables are my choice, so make it yours then. =) Galing ba papi turi. Mismo yung cables. Alagang alaga ko siya, laging roadie wrap na siya, don't want the cables to have those memory folds. hehehe.
Yeah, dude the Lava is thick pero hindi matigas. Hindi ako namomroblema pag nag aayos na ako, kasi parang naka creamsilk sa lambot. :lol: :lol:
(waiting for my elc's) :evil:
I've been TURIFIED!
:lol: now that expression is getting somewhere... hehehe... :wink:
help me get that one! TURIFIED = TURIFIC :lol:

puno na inbox mo turi...
pm na lang price ng 5 pcs right angle patch cables and 1 clear connect 12 feet :-D
puno na inbox mo turi...Sorry to interrupt dude, you mean 5 pairs of plugs right? :lol: :lol:

ive tried a clear connect and man - it was sooooo clear! i could hear my fugly guitar sound fuglier! hahaPag bumili ka ng 2 clear connects + 2 mini elc's pili ka kung timefactor o modfactor. :lol: :lol: Noh turi?? :-P :-P
nice cable, very very nice and its really worth the price. Plus, i think turi's even giving giveaways? haha :lol:
Pag bumili ka ng 2 clear connects + 2 mini elc's pili ka kung timefactor o modfactor. :lol: :lol: Noh turi?? :-P :-P
if you get noise from that... it's most probably from the electronics of the guitar, the power supply, or from the amp...Sorry di ko nagets? What exactly does that mean? :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm dumb
but, if you get none... tone heaven...
Sorry di ko nagets? What exactly does that mean? :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm dumb
Tried it with bass. Killah!
Sorry but George L. Lewis cables ftw.:lol:
i'm gonna be a member of the club really soon. :wink:
Inggit ako!
May available pa ba sir? i plan to get 5 right angled patch cables
Ano po ba ang Lava Cable?
:-P
i'm gonna be a member of the club really soon. :wink:
^i want to be a member of the club soon! :-D
Hi turi. Where can I try before i buy? :)You can try it at my place. Send me an email - epictone.com@gmail.com Thanks!

#1 - I'm guessing you haven't tried Lava
#2 - You are in a LAVA CABLES REVIEW thread, so unless you have a/b'd or have experienced Lava, I don't think your post makes sense(to me atleast)
#3 - Why don't you make a GOERGE L's REVIEW thread?
:lol: :lol: :lol:
BTT:
Noong saturday I was forced to be a temp bassist dahil wala ung bahista naman, eh 3 kami na gitarista. So dahil wala ung mga bahista, ung bass sa church na "Fernando", yes "FERNANDO" ang ginamit ko. Please note that this story is not exaggerated in any manner! Anyways, I was using it and off course I heard the difference! Everybody was like "O bakit parang mas maganda pa ung tunog nung ferndando dun sa washburn at dean?" (kasi ung 2 na bassist un ang gamit).
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Not sure if it's proper to use guitar cables for bass cables though. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Un lang...

bro patry din i guess you are from pasig curious ako dyan sa lava na yan ehDude I went from P.Waves to Lava. I used a circuit breaker (AFAIK ito ung pinaka high end nila na cable) tapos isang 10 ft classic. :lol: :lol: :lol: The rest is history
im planning to but planet waves but that lava is making me think alot....

(very soon) lava clear connect
mini elc lava kit
hahaha considering the lava cables as pedals!! :evil:
tone is in the jack :-P
Absolutely. I will be scheduling with LOA Studio probably next Saturday. Around 5 hours. Those who want to try them out, just send me an email. NO PM's nor SMS please. :-D epictone.com@gmail.com Seeeeeeya!
I love you Jeff.
Malapit na po yung sayo sir. :-D Oh, I love you too. :lol:
uy, san yan?
dami na lava users hehehe.. hmmmm.. parang gusto ko rin :evil: isip-isip.. :-D
Aba, kailan itong cable shootout na ito?
^cool bro!Grounding ng guitar ko sir. Confirmed it when I plugged straight to an amp and turned it up.
where is the hiss coming from?
I've got the lava's on my board...Congrats bro! Ang saya i assemble nung mini elc's noh? :lol: :lol: :lol:
Meron akong ilang stuff na nahalata. First off, assembly is a breeze. 2 hours at tapos ang routing ko. With no prior experience with making patch cables, panalo to. Made some mistakes, but got the hang of it pretty quick.
Secondly, the tone. Got rid of my Boost N Buff because of this. Transparent tone, absolutely no tone coloration. Kung meron man, dahil lang yun sa guitar cables ko. Bigla kong nahalata yung nawawala sa mids at highs ko with my previous cables (JB and Lazer). Got a problem now kasi naririnig ko rin yung hiss... Kaso oks lang with the tone.
Last... the looks. Well... Judge for yourself...
(http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u306/al_valdz/board002.jpg)
Congrats bro! Ang saya i assemble nung mini elc's noh? :lol: :lol: :lol:Oh yeah!!! :-D :-D :-D
according ibanezman zero ohm ang patch cable ng lava mula sa unang effect nya at huli. this is the reason kung bakit maganda signal na lumalabas sa lava...
Approximately zero but not absolutely zero. Resistance is also affected by its resistivity factor, which is dependent on temperature. When metals are exposed to high temperature, resistance also increases linearly. Give it a test with a simple copper wire. LOL :lol:tama bro given na yung tester kahit pagdikitin mo sa 200 ohms, hindi magzezero. Lava cable sobrang lapit na. almost zero. that's the good point. di pa ko pa natetest ang actual lava. but according to ibanezman, zero. baka nasa 20k sya sa tester. im sure its the lava na nagcause nang mgaganda signal nya. same with me bro. mas maayos ang mga pedals ko pag paisa isa. pagnakaseries na, olats na eh.
Why am I so excited... :lol:
you made the right choice bro! si Carlo na lang ang hindi pa kumakagat. :lol:
you made the right choice bro! si Carlo na lang ang hindi pa kumakagat. :lol:
He'll get there soon. :evil:
Once we got ours bro, post kagad ng pics ng mainggit :lol:
ako ba yan? :?
kung ako yan, ganito lang masasabi ko,
"4months ago wala akong balak mag upgrade ng pups sa gitara kasi wala akong paki, pero ngayon padating na sila." :lol:
"sinabi ko din na hindi na ko kukuha ng pedals for 2009, last na yung delay pedal pero humabol pa ko ng reverb, haha" :-D
oo gwafu ikaw nga. :lol:
so sinasabi na "nothing is impossible". :-D
medyo maganda pa dating n'yan, for bread pips hehe
"uhm possible kong kainin yung mga sinasabi ko, haha tirang adik ika nga haha" :evil:
ang daming mini elc's kailangan ko pwera na lang mag shift ako sa miniboard haha :lol:
Noob Question: Ano po yung mas ok ---> straight (guitar) to straight (amp) or straight (guitar) to angled (amp) or angled (guitar) to straight (amp) na cable? :?
He'll get there soon. :evil:Malamang sabay kami...hehhehe
Malamang sabay kami...hehhehe
Malamang sabay kami...hehhehe\m/
tama bro given na yung tester kahit pagdikitin mo sa 200 ohms, hindi magzezero. Lava cable sobrang lapit na. almost zero. that's the good point. di pa ko pa natetest ang actual lava. but according to ibanezman, zero. baka nasa 20k sya sa tester. im sure its the lava na nagcause nang mgaganda signal nya. same with me bro. mas maayos ang mga pedals ko pag paisa isa. pagnakaseries na, olats na eh.
MOGAMI CABLE parin ang para sakin n the best.. :-D
Malamang sabay kami...hehhehe
MOGAMI CABLE parin ang para sakin n the best.. :-D
can't deny the fact that Mogami Cable is right up there with Lava and GL's. i'm a Mogami owner also and have no plans of letting this baby go. it's done the job for me in an acoustic set-up (guitar - cable - amp).
if you're talking about the best, or at least one of the best, you've got to be talking about Zaolla Silverline cables.
ON TOPIC - seriously considering 2 Clear Connects. :-D
^ Gas inducing statement there my friend :-)
try MOGAMI 2524 cable, then compare to ur lava cables... if u want gamitan nyo pa ng sound spectrum analysis.... u will know whos the best.... heheheh..
:roll:
^ Gas inducing statement there my friend :-):-D
OMGLOL. Thanks for the review Bryan. Hehe. We'll setup a jam soon at my farm. I was told that 1 gallon of diesel can last for 10 hours. Lulz.
He could be right. IMO, the only way we can try it out is bringing one here. Sure. Why not. Lulz. Let's see for ourselves. Moving the cable testing probably end of January. Para marami makapunta. And this time, I'm recording it. 8 hours straight. Lol.
:-D
I'm sure Mogami would sound good. Otherwise John Petrucci and other pros won't use it.
The face was for the fact that the comment was done on this thread.
Sige ayos yan.
oh yes. lol. i've got a ton of cables here now. haha. text me. thanks again man.
Cool. Sure. But yeah, that would be interesting - Mogami vs. Lava!
Daming naka Lava na ah. Pa- Good Burger ka naman! :-D
I've heard the difference just last night.
Umurong bayag ng DiMarzio cables ko sa Lava. LOL.
di ko na matiis.... ano ba yan, pati cables pagtatalunan pa. it's so freaking childish. i wonder what's next... yung material nung insulating rings sa mga plugs? :lol: :lol: :lol:

akala ko dati, as long as low-capacitance, good na. but from what i'm seeing here, it's more than just that. the clear connects everyone is raving about is at 26pF/ft. lava claims this as the sweet spot -- the optimum, which is an interesting term to use. if one is gunning for the optimum, then shouldn't the length also be specific?
way too many factors are at play here -- within the cable itself and outside. but the point i'm driving at is even a spectrum analysis can be thrown out the window when it all boils down to what the subjective ear prefers. there really is no such thing as a BEST cable, especially when someone already has a certain predisposition.
not putting down Lava or anything. while i may or may not appreciate any sonic differences between these and my own, i totally agree that you're paying for quality and reliability when you buy them.
i'm just thinking aloud.
Basta umorder na lang kayo! Tapos. Masaya yung buyer, masaya si Turi. May pang-kain na naman siya sa magandang restaurant. :lol:
^yung sa tapat nyo panalo yung barbeque. - may extra sarap talaga pag libre :D

Nila-lava-san na hahaha!!!!
my concluson, i will have to get lava as soon as i get my GAS back into guitars.
for now, am on to a different GAS.
I was noob then so I didn't know that the cables that I've used in my pedalboard were mic cables, LOL!

bro, ze lava shirts? :lol:
Shirts??? I thought they were red jockeys or something? :lol:
Shirts??? I thought they were red jockeys or something? :lol:lol.
If you are somewhat a violent player on stage, go for the ELC's. :-D
Hello, all!
I'm in the process of talking to Turi about getting myself these babies but I can't decide which one to get. Should I be getting the ELCs or the Clear Connects?
Aside from the already stated information that the difference between the 2 kinds is that the Clear Connects have their wires crimpped on while the ELCs are soldered on, I really doubt that the 2 variants sound exactly alike. The mere fact that the 2 are made out of different cables and plugs make me believe that there is a difference. Granted it may be subtle and even negligible but I believe it is there. Having said that, I nonetheless also believe that the 2 are up there with the best and that getting one variant over the other would be a clearer, better and beneficial advantage.
So now I am only left with choosing one that would last the longest so taking into consideration the process in which they are made (crimped/solderless vs. soldered), which one do you think can take the abuse of a "world-tour" (HAHA) better, the solderless Clear Connects or the soldered on ELCs?
I am looking forward to all your opinions.
Thank you very much.
Good luck on talking with Turi! Hahah.
VOVOX ka na! :evil:
ELC's nga. I'm using clear connects right now, i'm what people call me...parang poste daw ako sa stage, oh well. :-D
Why? Mahirap ba kausapin si Mr. N.? :lol: He's actually a very nice person to talk to. Very helpful. Pero I am hoping to hear the inputs of other users as well. No offense meant, Turi! :-D
For the price and without considering tonal clarity, would they last twice as long as the ELCs?
As of now, it does look like ELCs even if I only gig out and/or jam seldomly. I feel like the durability factor would make it more practical. Also, the orange colored caps on the Clear Connects' plugs will will make it more noticeable to my wife. Mas mapapagastos ako because I will then need to get her something new also! :lol:
I'm not sure if Turi still brings in the ELCs though so assuming that he doesn't, would you say that the Clear Connects can handle being stepped on, run over by half-stack casters, studio chair coasters and the like?
I don't get it? Iba pa ba ung clear connect sa ELC's? Hmmmmmm.... Wala kasing ELC's sa listahan ni turi, all there is ay mini elc's. Iba pa ba un?
Thanks for that input. Btw, I'm not actually a gigging musikero but I thought the world-tour scenario was a perfect situation to test a product's durability for wear and tear. hehe
Any other opinions?

None taken bro.

Any cable won't last long if the user abuses it, does not take care of it. VOVOX - Tonal Clarity like no other. Van Den Huls do give out great clarity but best for bassists and acoustic players.

Both are durable. The reason why I chose Lava is because of their craftsmanship. Regarding your wife, I can't do anything about that. I have the same problem.

ELC - soldered clear connects. Not a dealer item. No free shirts (still in progress for all who ordered). No discounts.
:-D nakaka GAS talaga to, kaso di maisama sa expenses haha
Kaya mo yan sir. hehe
Look at the Lava Rock Option. Applicable to most cable on www.lavacable.com except the ones that have natural fibres and high purity polymers . Please check description per cable.
I can bring in everything from www.lavacable.com. The pricelists that you see are the 'dealer items'. and to quote myself:
Although they might be given for free as a promo this April 10 for the Annual Gear Show - National G.A.S Day, 2010 at Magnet high street. :-o :-P :lol: :-D
Haven't checked this thread since my last posting here so I apologize for not having acknowledged all the replies to my query.
Got my mini-ELCs yesterday and was only able to assemble it this afternoon. Now my fingertips are sore from the very engrossing and enjoyable build! :lol: I must say that the greatly diminished board tone suck and the resulting definition and clarity plus a slight volume boost and a more neat, clean and streamlined board made it all worthwhile.
:-)
2 moar and you're done??? YOU LIE!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:THIS.
magbabayad lang ako ng mga utang at ako'y kukuha na sayo Turi... my eyes have been opened haha
You won't regret it, silverf.! :-)
How much ba normally? or does it depend on the board? usually enough ba yung package? :-D
www.epictone.com for prices. Plugs will be enough for 5-5 pedals. Cable length is 10ft (more than enough for 506 pedals). :-D
@Maxi. Thanks for the review man! glad you liked it. Was an honor to meet your family earlier. And thanks for sharing the table!
thanks bro for the quick reply. Quick question...
I'm looking at Clear Connect and the Vintage... Are there any sound differences between them or purely looks?
Clear connect is more balanced. I hear diminishing lows sa Vintage.
pinahiram ni jampaps skin yung lava cable nya
1 cable straight to straight, na try ko na sa gear ko hehe
honest to goodness,
ang laking difference sa level
straight to amp or dumaan sa board na may kahalong custom patch cables ni emil at calif cable/vox cable(not vovox) hehe
try ko naman pakiramdaman sa tone :lol:
Try it straight first. Then sa GAS Day, try the main instrument cables with a pedal board in between. \m/
haay ang daming bibilin ang konti ng pera LOL.
yan din problem ko bro hehe affir!!! :-D
Just got my Lava Clear Connect 12ft. cable.
I love it!
I wanted to order last night to get the discount but I didn't have enough mOney for downpayment:(
My client will finally pay up and makakakuha na kasi ako! Excited!:)
how much canare y cable? txt m nlng aq very interested 09053442800

:lol: :lol:
Saving up for another Clear Connect. :evil:
mga sir tanong ko lang po, ano po ba mas durable yung solderless o yung soldered?
yung solderless is pressure connected.. hindi rin basta-basta natatanggal.. same concept utilized sa airplanes if i'm not mistaken. pero sa case ng airplane, yun ang ginagawa nila para madali magtroubleshoot pag nagkaproblema, but still, don't expect it to come off easily..
the Clear Connect Actually feel very sturdy.. there's no hint na solderless siya except when you read the specs.. kung ibibigay lang siya sakin as is, iisipin ko na soldered siya sa loob.. :-)
bale sir you're saying na mas matibay yung soldered?
mga sir tanong ko lang po, ano po ba mas durable yung solderless o yung soldered?
Pressure conections are fine connection methods. Been used in the aircraft industry for decades. Performance is no different than a soldered connection. The main rub for these connectors is reliability (or life expectancy). The contact surfaces corrode over time. But not in months. It takes years even decades for this to cause a failure or significant degration of the connection. They are much easier to produce, easier to repair, & much cheaper than solder connections. There is no reason to concern yourself over the connection method. They'll be fine for audio/musical instrument use.
Enjoy.
bale sir you're saying na mas matibay yung soldered?
he didn't say that... he was just stating or describing what a lava solderless cable is... the durability of a cable depends on how you use it...
ah hehe. sori mga sir. di ko masyado nagets yung sinabi r_chino18. hehe.
anyway salamat sa mga info sir.
yung clear connect na lang siguro kukunin ko, ingatan ko na lang. :-D
Ang tibay nyan dude.
But if one doesn't take care of his cables, that's a different story.
uye naiimagine ko na kung gaano sya katibay. hehe.
wag mo lang higitin yung cable pag iuunplug mo.. hold the barrel of the plug well and unplug it from there.. hehe.. :lol: :lol:
hmm... actually, grabbing on the cable rather than the plug is one of the durability tests that people do. i actually *try* to yank off the plugs from my cables to see how tough they really are. hehehe.

Eto na lang, knowing the price of your cable (2k++) siguro naman magdadalawang isip ka bago mo i-unplug yun cable sa gitara/amp mo diba? yun tipong, ay siyet, kelangan dahan dahan, dalawang libong piso rin ito :lol:

this is exactly why i'm not too inclined to get a solderless instrument cable. good thing there's the Lava Vintage. :lol:I did my yank test specially for my solderless cables. The durability was impressive.

PS: For some reason, my Pitchblack Tuner detects the signal better and hindi siya mabilis na paiba-iba. Really noticed this.Noticed this too. Compared to my old cables (Proel Die Hard), it seems to detect the notes I play better with the Lava's with less tuning needle movement.
been gassing for lava patch cable kit
Tanong lang po sa mga lava cable users about sa tibay nito... Sa tunog wala na kong masasabi pa sa reviews nyo. :-D Pero sa tibay...
Sa tingin nyo ba tatagal sya kapag malikot ang gitarista? Yung tipong malikot talaga na parang turumpo... Tapos naggi-guitar spin... Plano kasi ng utol ko kumuha nito e kaso ganun siya kalikot kaya nagdadalawang isip kasi dalawang libo din. :-D Maraming salamat!
Basta wag mo lang fifingirin ang loob nung orange thing ok yan.
Alagaan mo lang sya.
Di ko nakuha sir. :lol:
Panong fifingirin?? :-o
don't open the orange rubber... :wink:

By the way guys, the replacement for the VOVOX cables are the new LAVA SOAR cables. way cheaper pa! Please add Lava Cable at Facebook and also like the fanpage!
The Lava SoarTM cable is an affordable high end cable that features dual solid 99.99% OFC copper conductors, superior shielding, Lava Silver WireTM plugs and a braided outer jacket for durability. Based on proven high-end cable design principles, with “sweet spot” capacitance, this cable delivers the full sonic spectrum in warmth and detail for guitarists soaring their tone to new heights. Made in U.S.A.
turi is bad. you shouldn't have called me. :-D
now my scumback h75/m75 would have to wait.. :| hehehe
Lava Soar will be available very soon. Mark from Lava Cable claims it will be better, tougher and a lot cheaper than VOVOX Link Protect A or the VOVOX Sonorous Protect A.
vovox 7500
vdh 12k+
soar - turi na mag presho ;) but its cheaper than vovox

I'm waiting for the photos so I can show you guys. I already ordered 4 12 foot cables for cable testing. All Lava Cables will now be at PJC Music Store.
will it be cheaper than VDH?
vovox 7500
vdh 12k+
soar - turi na mag presho ;) but its cheaper than vovox
thanks dude! want the VDH since turi doesn't carry vovox anymore... but since I found out about the 'soar' cable, i think i'll be changing my list...
I heard it's around 79USD! Let's see how much Epic Man will price the Soar.
same as epic prices parin? :-) I'm gassing for some pero short sa funds :-(
way cheaper. guaranteed.
change it. nao!
got my vdh! :D:-D
it sounds 'richer' than the vovox.. nag tunog manipis ung vovox compared sa vdh.. minor issue lang is after use kailangan mo icoil ulit.. mashadong matigas para i bara barang pag ligpit.. hehe
and medyo pricey.. ;)
i think this cable are for the guitar to amp players.. pag madami pang daanan na pedals, vovox can do that. or the soar kahit ndi ko pa natry. haha
:-D
Lava Soar will be available in two weeks here in Manila. I'll leave two cable at PJC Music permanently for you guys to test it out. Also Clear Connects. FYI, PJC MUSIC/Flood uses Lava Cables.
ganda din pala canare gs-6 cable :-D
yup ok tunog ng canare gs-6
may lava cables ba for acoustics?
Yes. Best ones are Lava Soar - new product. I have to try these out myself when they arrive. Epic for both Electrics and acoustics. Lavaman claims they are better than Vovox.
Hi, Turi.
Do you have procong for the SOAR already? Please advise me.
Thanks, bro.
Arriving next week and will be on display at PJC Music Store at Ortigas Home Depot, J. Vargas Ave.
For orders, 2-3 weeks before it arrives. Down payment - balance scheme.
Please send me an email for your orders. Thanks man!
I can't wait for the LAVA SOAR cables to arrive!!! :evil:
Peace.

supposedly, Lava Soar is Lavacable's replacement for Vovox. i read somewhere that Vovox made an unacceptable price increase that prompted Lavacable to take it out of its line. in response to this, Lavacable made a high-end cable that will replace the Vovox but will not be as pricey. :-)
is it hard to put those lava patch cables together? Thinking of ordering na din kasi :-D
sir turi.. :D
any idea kung kelan dating ng orders? Lava Cable Clear Connects, 1 pc right-straight, 1pc straight-straight, 5 pcs right angled plugs. :D
iingitin ko mga band mates ko para bumili rin... thanks :D
up for the lava soar... saw it at PJC music kaninang umaga...
Bugger. I wish LAVA introduced a dealer cable with soldered plugs, more like the LAVA ELC but a dealer item. lol. I'm itching to get one but i don't want clear connects.
Don't go about telling me to go for SOAR. I might have a heart attack. lol. :lol: :lol:
Lava ELCs were great for me. Less noise (super. :lol:). Need CLear Connects (pass muna sa Soar. :-D)inggit ako :-(
Boss,
ask ko lang po. ung Lava cables ba pang pedal board lang?? d ba cya pwede from gadget to guitar or gadget to amp?? wala ba ung mahahaba like na standard na 3-5M? meron kaya nyan dito sa pinas? how much po estimate??
thanks much God bless :-D

jmorrero posted a comparison between Lava and George L's somewhere here in GC. not sure if it's in this same thread. i vouch for that review because we (arkeetar, luden, jamming_papu) were there and we did the A/B with him. :-)
cool. i'll look for it :-) what did he find? (just in case i can't see the review)
it's a bit detailed bro. he summarized them in bullet points. hard to give a short description. i think this thread is a good place to start looking. :-)

I SOAR.
oh yez :-D
I SOAR.
and so do I.... I agree that it is really a VERY VERY GOOD INVESTMENT!
let us SOAR!
Seriously, the Soar IS, as expected, a possible 'end-all' cable. It's clarity encompasses even the Clear Connect's (I used to own a pair). I initially wanted the Vovox cable but the Soar definitely threw that thought out the window.
Here are some of my initial reactions when I started using Soar 3 days ago:
- the transparency/clarity is awesome. you can definitely hear your guitar's tone (wood and all). you're gonna have to be careful when picking because you'll hear 'em a lot clearer too.
- the mids and highs were very apparent but still balanced.
- the lows is something i still have to work on. maybe i should tweak my amp a bit more.
I still have to play with it a bit more. But overall, the SOAR is definitely DEFINITELY something everyone should consider.
be right back next week...
anyone here using lava blue demon?? any reviews?? interested here!!! :-D
I only sold 2 pairs of those last year. Pushed the Clear Connect because it was just way better.
Now I'm pushing the Blue Demon and Magma Cable for low priced but very good soldered cables and the Lava Soar for the 'end game' cables.
Soar - look no further.
Unless someone wants a pair of 12ft van den Huls for 24,000. :-D :-D :-D
very GAS-sing sir hehehehe :-D
are there variations of length also?? planning to get a blue demon maybe after Christmas this year.. 8-)
12ft and up.Hopefully makabili rin ako nito before the year ends!! Papost naman ng link sir Turi!! :-D
It's Christmas man. Treat yourself to Lava Soar.
I will guarantee that you will love it way better than any cable out there. Or even the Lava Blue Demon NOR the Magma Cable.
Hopefully makabili rin ako nito before the year ends!! Papost naman ng link sir Turi!! :-D
Sig bro.Sir Turi parang down ata yung site? Try ko bukas.
mga sir...ano main difference sa signal at output ng sound pag lava compared sa ibang cables like monster and lowend na DIY cable bukod sa madali magloose? :-D
Please go to the first page for more info.
Welcome!
thanks sir turi! may video sample ba na may comparison ng mga cables?
Welcome!
None. Won't do justice to it. Sorry man. You gotta try it hands on.
:-D
thans! after gas ko sa pedals malamang cable na sir...at malamang, sa inyo ko order! ayus! high five boss turi!
Won't do justice to it. Sorry man. You gotta try it hands on.
:-D
amen to this. loving my lava soars now. thanks sir turi!!! God bless.:-D
Still lovin my Clear Connects. I still can't justify getting a Soar...even just one. :lol:

getting a pair soon :)
clear connects rock :)
soar na agad :lol:
bwahhahah
ok na ako sa clear connects ok din naman performance niya from what i've tested :)
the price difference would be quite big and with that amount ill alot it for the patch cables xD
try mogami cables
kukuha ako ng soar soon dami pang gastos sa ngayon :cry: :cry:waaaahhhhh........................
Nice. :roll:
GASing for Lava LSW plugs. :lol:
:evil:
Turi, musta yung soar against the EA Lyric hg? or sommer gcb?
We haven't tried it. We're thinking of bringing in EA still in the country. Not sure yet.
what if naka lava cables ako pero patch cables na gamit sa effects generic lang? drastic padin kaya improvement sa tone?

best investmen 2 lava soar :lol:
Turi pushed me a while ago to get lava soar instead of lava clear connect. :-D :-D
i'm sure he has a good reason. good choice man! :-D
Mga sir naexperience nyo na ba yung color orange rubber na ito
(http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q170/reichinopua/Pedalboard%201/DSC05750.jpg)
sa angled plug ng CC na lumuwag na? Yung tipong hindi na niya yakap-yakap yung plug?

Thanks sa replies mga bro!!heat shrink ata sya...gamitan ng heat gun? :-) :-)
Ano kaya maganda gawin dun para maging tight uli?
baka pwede mo email si mark@lavacable.com :-) sumasagot naman siya :-D
heat shrink ata sya...gamitan ng heat gun? :-) :-)
Heat shrink ba yun? Parang hindi. I may be wrong though.
baka pwede mo email si mark@lavacable.com :-) sumasagot naman siya :-DForeigner ba yan si mark@lavacble mga sir? Baka kasi hindi makaintindi ng tagalog. :lol:
Foreigner ba yan si mark@lavacble mga sir? Baka kasi hindi makaintindi ng tagalog. :lol:

That's right man! I am waiting for my 2 lava soar to be arrive on last week of january. Haha! Turi pushed me a while ago to get lava soar instead of lava clear connect. :-D :-D
That can easily be remedied by applying another coat of shrink tubing. Available at deeco. Black.Uy ayus!!! Papost ng pics sir!! :-D Ichecheck ko yan sa raon!!! :-D
That's what I did with my clear connect when I upgraded the plugs to LSW.
Correction. Most likely first week :)

Nakakaadik gumawa ng patch cables! :-D Sakit lang sa kamay. :lol:
Haha! Ganda ng Lava 'no?Panalo!
Pagbumili ka ng patch cable kit parang pang 2 to 3 pedal boards na ata eh!
Panalo!
Ang haba pa ng natira kahit nagamit ko lahat ng plugs.
sir turi,
gusto ko lang po sana malaman kung paano at magkano aabutin tong gantong setup po.
(lava cables po; ung mga bold letters po ang mga kailangan ko)
guitar-----(gusto ko po ung retro coiled white ala-PG)------wah-------patch cable-------brit mod ds1-------patch cable------ibanez ts7-------(clear connect, 12ft lang po ba available?)------amp
fx loop send------cable------delay pedal------cable------fx loop return
meron na po akong isang custom made cable from audiophile: (guitar to wah)
neutrik------3 meters nobelle cable------silent neutrik
sir sana po naintindihan nyo ung set up.. hehehehe..
thanks po sir.
note: lahat po pala nung pedals dyan meron na po ako nun,
bukod lang po sa delay at sa mga susunod pa pong mga pedals and modulations..
thanks po sir..
Wait. Does that mean na pwede palang umorder ng 1 ft elc cable and 4 plugs lang? :lol:
:-o wala nang clear connect? :cry: ....onting ipon pa ako para sa soar :-D
Soar :evil: at least straight to the top of the line ng lava na. No more room for lava gas afterwards :lol:
sir turi, what can can you recommend if i only use GT10 and Ibanez electrc guitar? Im eyeing for a purple retro coil... :evil: :evil: :evil: :-D
what d u think?
Simple. Get two purple retro coil cables.
Best if you get any two of these:
Pink
White
Purple
Chicks love em. :-D
AHahah wait... what is the differnce between a retrocoil and a lava soar cable? i was thnking of also buying a lava soar cable coz it's got some great reviews... is it high end? and what about the retro :? :lol:?
ahahah ill think about it... i love the retro coils coz it look really really nice!!!!!! ahahaha
And don't forget, they sound really really great too! Perfect for vocalist/guitarist who has a pedal board.
What I am using now is a white Retro Coil from guitar to pedal board. Then two Lava Soar 12 ft to two amps. :-D
Ahaha! Damn. FInal verdict? Retrocoil or lava soar? :-P
I got marshall vs30r,ibanez prestge and just a gt10 ahaha my rig.
Either two retro coils coz chicks love em. or 1 retro coil to board then 15 ft soar to amp.
then again chicks love coils.
talagang pinanindigan chicks love coils. wahah gagwapo ba ko pag ganyan cable ko :mrgreen: :lol:
Soar sounds better than the Retro Coils. In my opinion. It's the 'high end' cable I am offering. Since Clear Connect won't be on the list any more. Watch out for lower priced cables soon: Blue Demon and Magma cables.
Again, chicks love the coils. lawl
Thanks a while ago for my 12ft. and 15ft. lava soar cables bro. Here's our pic lawl. :lol:

damn i'm gassing for lava clear connects since i need a new cable. paano pala magorder kay sir turi?is it by email,SMS, or message here sa PM?di na ata pwede umorder ng CC kay sir turi soar ata pwede
:-D
Lava Clear connect will no longer be offered starting January 1, 2011.
di na ata pwede umorder ng CC kay sir turi soar ata pwede
:-D
bummer. maganda din ba ang soar?
oo naman.
I always had this bad experience with patch cables sucking my tone, making the highs muffled and all, but then I got elc's from turi and damn man I was blown away by the clarity of these patch cables. they were snappier than ever and i thought my tone wouldn't get clearer and sparklier. Now all my cables in my rig are Lava'd. woot! no tone sucking at all. kudos!
1 kg of Lava = awesome tones. :) Thanks, Turi. :)

monster tong pedal board na to! Congrats man!!
sabi sakin ni turi dati wag na daw ako mag cc, mag soar na daw ako at siguradong hindi na daw ako magpapalit pag naka soar nako, unless mabaliw daw ako haha! powerful ang soar kesa sa cc. Kuha na bro! Super bait nyan si boss turi. :) sarap kakwentuhan, plus may mga matututunan ka pa sa kanya. Sulit!
soar adik lol :lol: try nyo din retro coil + lava soar :evil:

bro kimhags, eto si posera adik to lahat ata ng lava plano nito magkaron eh, hahaha! Dito pa lang mahahalata mo na na nakakaadik ang lava. :) isa pa wala ng cc, dapat ako yung kukuha ng last batch ng cc nung december kaso si boss turi hinipnotize ako na mag soar na hahahaha!
yeah i heard wala na daw cc so soar nalang kukunin ko. marami na din akong nakitang positive reviews about sa lava, come to think of it wala pa akong nakitang negative reviews. :-D cable GAS na talaga 'to. haha!
go soar na tapos n agad cable GAS mo for sure :evil:
you guys convinced me to get one. :lol:
One is never convinced until one seriously gets one. hahaha! :lol:
i'm seriously getting one alright. haha!pang-patay ng cable GAS. :-D
Aabangan namin yan. :-)
you guys convinced me to get THREE and a ton of patch cable kits. . :lol:
Fixed.
edit: Bring it.
just got my 12ft and 15ft lava soar from sir turi yesterday, and wow. it's like a night and day difference between my old surelock cables and the soar. with the surelock cables, the highs to me have been more emphasised, making the my sound pretty harsh on high gain settings. not so with the lavas. definitely get one. these cables are incredibly bastos for toanz. :-D

i share the same sentiments man. kaso wala pa akong budget sa ngayon.
Fixed.
Turi are you still selling clear connects?
ahhh, kaya pala wala na sa list nya. Lava Soar is too expensive for what I do :-)
ako nag aantay padin sa retrocoil pink :lol:
libre mo naman ako ng retrocoil. lol :lol:
for chix to pare haha mag hahanap ako chix guitarist tapos bibigay ko sakanya to tapos sabay hinge ng number and kiss lol kidding :lol:
hahahahaha! natawa ako dun. ako na lang kunyari yung chix haha!
hahaha di kita ma tatake out ahaha lol
i have the cash for a lava soar na. :-) ano pala procedure to ordering?
send turi an email bro. he'll tell you how much you need to DP. :-)
soar users, pansin niyo ba na may boost sa volume noong ginamit niyo? pansin ko kasi noong band practice namin kahapon, hindi na ako kinakain ng drummer sa volume, kahit 15w amp lang gamit ko. :lol:
:-)
When can i get the plugs man? :-D
I was waiting for you at ten02 during the shootout. :roll: :-) :evil:sorry man. sms sent nga pala :-)

You're asking for trouble lol
You're asking for trouble lol

Hahaha. Tapos may lalabas pa na LAVA wireless cable system no? :lol:
Sir Turi, I'm thinking of getting a 12 ft lava soar, for Guitar>effects, But a lava Clear connect/ELC for my effects>amp setup.Oh and I'll also be using the Lava ELC patch cables.
Is this advisable? Or should I just stick with the same guitar cable? Lava soar to soar, or Elc to ELC? Ipon nalang muna for both Soars?
Also sir, what are your reviews regarding this:
http://www.lavacable.com/mogami.html
Thanks sir!
I'm not sure if sir turi still carries clear connects. Parang soar and yung other cables nalang yata.
Soar na :evil: from the reviews so far, 'di ka ata magsisisi haha

Got a LAVA retrocoil. wooot! ang pogi! parang GMD lang. hehehehehe :evil::evil:
wala ko magawa kanina nag cable test ako meron ako 2 lava soar and retro coil
mejo mas trip ko lang retro coil+lava soar balance lang not to bright sa taste ko and ma porma talaga tignan hehe
sulit talaga lava cable kaya ang sarap ng set up ko ngayon guitar-retro coil-pedals-2 lava soar stereo and mono= WIN! :evil:
Deins naman mabigat yung retro coil? :-) siguro nga mas may naroroll off na highs yung retro coil. Oks yun sa akin, bright yung yung set-up ko eh.
ang ayaw ko lang sa retrocoil is di ka masyado magalaw dahil kahit pwede ma-stretch yung cable ng 20ft, mararamdaman mo yung resistance niya para bumalik sa dating form unlike regular cable.
PERO ANG COOL PA RIN! hahaha! :evil:
Porma OC says yes :lol: :lol:
with chicks ba? then....maybe...haha :lol:
will be getting a blue demon this MAY.... :evil:
good for you bro. sana maka-ipon na ako ulit para matuloy ko na yung inorder ko na lava soar. :|
good for you bro. sana maka-ipon na ako ulit para matuloy ko na yung inorder ko na lava soar. :|
great choice my man.
kaya mo yan bro!!! :lol:
dapat nga ngaung april eh nag us pa ko pc kaya dun napunta budget. and siince student ka pa, madali ka makakabudget, 8-)
hehe. I'm trying to save nga ulit eh, nag-set aside na ako ng konting cash strictly for the cables. :lol: hopefully wala nang emergency expenses.
hahhahaha. wala na yan for sure.. :-D
guys, na try nyo na ung "Blue Demon"?
i bought a pair of Clear Connects last year from turi.. so far, satisfied ako. from clean, overdrive, to heavy metal dirts.. ganda ng tunog.
na curious lang ako dito sa "Blue Demon" and sa "Magma", if maganda review, palit na naman..
\m/
Turi, read a rumor about mini soar cable kits. They seem interesting. Got any more details on it? :-D
chix review about my pink retro coil.......
chix dig it gusto nila hingen eh ang ganda daw and PINK color :lol:
Finally completed my "All Lava Setup" (4 sets of solderless) and got a 12ft. Clear Connect. Golden tone I must say. Thanks Turi :-)
20ft. Lava Soar on the way :evil:
Turi, read a rumor about mini soar cable kits. They seem interesting. Got any more details on it? :-D
Soldered Mini ELC cables with GHS plugs. I like. :mrgreen:
http://www.lavacable.com/minielcdiy2.htm
correct me if i'm wrong but the Mini Soar is cheaper than the solder-free pedalboard kit?
Yep!
i guess the next question is why? Soar is Lava's top line in instrument cables but why is the Mini Soar cheaper?
not that i'm complaining tho. :lol:
i guess the next question is why? Soar is Lava's top line in instrument cables but why is the Mini Soar cheaper?
not that i'm complaining tho. :lol:
It is new and not yet officially released. The mini Soar is a solid core cable sold in bulk and kits. Perfect for soldered boards and wiring racks.
Bulk pricing is .89 per foot. A first in solid core cabling.
Yes but its a bulk rate. Sold in 500ft boxes bulk. Also the single conductor is less expensive to make.
Mas maganda ang Clear Connect. :)+1
Mukhang maganda nga ah. Pero mas malaki sa solderless patch ano?
EDIT - found a link:
http://www.upfrontguitars.com/LAVA-Mini-Soar-DIY-Pedalboard-Kit.html
Thinner than the usual Soar daw. Pic's small pero the bigger pic shows that the cable has mini soar written on it. Cheaper pa siya than the soldered kit above!

Grabe ka bro ahaha! Go for it, sulit naman yan! Sulit lalo para sa mga EBMM JP guitars mo. :-D
Grabe ka bro ahaha! Go for it, sulit naman yan! Sulit lalo para sa mga EBMM JP guitars mo. :-D
Oy master turi, ano mas okay na kunin ko? Yung elc oh yang mini soar? Tinatamad ako mag-basa ng reviews ikaw na lang sumagot. Hihihi. 8-)
Iba talaga pag Lava.
Sir Turi, normal lang ba na medyo stiff and Lava Soar? Luluwag pa ba ito as i use it? Thanks!
@MYN11 oo bro iba talaga pag lava ang gamit haha! Ang layo ng difference eh.
@turi yun na nga mas pogi tingnan nga pag naka ELC haha! So yun na talaga oorderin ko, parang gusto ko na rin mag pedal train lol
It's a solid core cable :-)
Ok... Sorry newbie sa high end cable... So it'll stay like that for all eternity? :)
No. It won't.
It's a solid core cable :-)
isn't the Clear Connect a solid core cable? sorry hindi ko din alam ibig sabihin ng solid core. :lol:
isn't the Clear Connect a solid core cable? sorry hindi ko din alam ibig sabihin ng solid core. :lol:
Stranded cable. Soar is solid core.
Stranded cable. Soar is solid core.
i guess i have to Google the difference between these two. :lol:
Let me know what you find out maxi. :-)
Solid wire, also called solid-core or single-strand wire, consists of one piece of metal wire. Stranded wire is composed of a bundle wires to make a larger conductor.
Stranded wire is more flexible than solid wire of the same total cross-sectional area. Solid wire is cheaper to manufacture than stranded wire and is used where there is little need for flexibility in the wire. Solid wire also provides mechanical ruggedness; and, because it has relatively less surface area which is exposed to attack by corrosives, protection against the environment. Stranded wire is used when higher resistance to metal fatigue is required. Such situations include connections between circuit boards in multi-printed-circuit-board devices, where the rigidity of solid wire would produce too much stress as a result of movement during assembly or servicing; A.C. line cords for appliances; musical instrument cables; computer mouse cables; welding electrode cables; control cables connecting moving machine parts; mining machine cables; trailing machine cables; and numerous others.
At high frequencies, current travels near the surface of the wire because of the skin effect, resulting in increased power loss in the wire. Stranded wire might seem to reduce this effect, since the total surface area of the strands is greater than the surface area of the equivalent solid wire, but in fact a simple stranded wire will not improve skin effect since all the strands are short-circuited together and still behave as a single conductor. A stranded wire will have higher resistance than a solid wire of the same diameter because the cross-section of the stranded wire is not all copper, there are unavoidable gaps between the strands (this is the circle packing problem for circles within a circle). A stranded wire with the same cross-section of conductor as a solid wire is said to have the same equivalent gauge and is always a larger diameter.
However, for many high-frequency applications, proximity effect is more severe than skin effect, and in some limited cases, simple stranded wire can reduce proximity effect. For better performance at high frequencies, litz wire, which has the individual strands insulated and twisted in special patterns, may be used.
lava,, my last gas na siguro :-DUunahan na kita bro.. hindi! :lol:
nakakabawas ba ng hum yung lava cable? :?Depende bro. Kung sa old cable mo galing yung hum, tiyak pagmag-upgrade ka into Lava tanggal yan. Pero kung sa gitara galing yung hum, masclear and more defined hum ang maririnig mo kung magLava ka. :-D
Uunahan na kita bro.. hindi! :lol:Ok. thanks sa reply!... pagiipunan ko kahit yung retro black lang :-D
Depende bro. Kung sa old cable mo galing yung hum, tiyak pagmag-upgrade ka into Lava tanggal yan. Pero kung sa gitara galing yung hum, masclear and more defined hum ang maririnig mo kung magLava ka. :-D
nakakabawas ba ng hum yung lava cable? :?
magkano ang patch cables ng lava? :?
meron ba silang parang "cheaper by the dozen"? :?
Hindi actually hum eh, rather, yung signal noise. Mapapansin yun sa mga generic na cables, minsan parang ang dumi ng signal.Generic cables = tainted signal + noise
ang dami ng post. waahh.. i hope ayos lang kung magtanong ako about ELC... anu pinagkaiba neto??
Pinagkaiba saan bro? ELC yung mismong cable.
Clear Connect -- naka ELC cable tapos solderless plugs
ELC -- ELC cable tapos soldered plugs
mini ELC -- yung manipis na ELC na ginagamit sa patch cable
ay sorry... i think it's soldered... yung binebenta ni sir saturn po... ayun... anu edge nya over the others?
Basically kagaya lang siya nung Clear Connect pero yung plugs niya ay soldered sa cable. I would actually take that over the Clear Connects for that reason alone. Yun nga lang, mas mahal siya ng konti (brand new price comparison).
Mas ok din yun kesa sa Retrocoils, Magma, at Blue Demon if you are after clarity sa signal.
lava!
have had clear connects for around 2 years or more if im not mistaken. i am not that maingat like others with cables and move around a lot.
guess what?
they're still alive and soundin' fantastic. quality talaga.
highly recommended! pati lava mini elcs for patch! sarap pa gumawa ng patch cables. :P

Mismo to bro! Kaso ako di nasarapan sa pag gawa ng patch cables sumakit kamay ko lol.
Hahaha me too. Pero worth it, kasi sulit sa board real estate. :)
What board real estate bro? Nag take ka rin ba ng exam?
Meant space sa board :lol: sorry haha
What board real estate bro? Nag take ka rin ba ng exam?:lol:

@turi, sira ba yang link mo? bakit walang prices?
Cool, may color options na pala yung solder free plugs :-) black, white, red, green.
Interesting.
Yup! hehe. But I'm investing on the black/gold plugs. hehe.
your inbox is full man, i have a product inquiry to make. :lol:

Lava's new higher end cable:
Ultramafic
http://i.imgur.com/FYOOy.jpg (http://i.imgur.com/FYOOy.jpg)
The Lava Ultramafic™ cable is designed to take your tone to the extreme and let your signal flow just like water. It features specially designed purple outer jacket and dielectric, with an 18 AWG CDA102 (highest purity) silver plated low strand count copper conductor and 97% silver plated copper shielding that enables pure signal flow. Its capacitance is 25 pF/ft – dialed in to minimize early high frequency roll off and provide for premium note articulation.

SOAR or Ultramafic? :DMas Gusto ko looks ng Soar :-D
Walang katapusang GAS nga!!! :lol:
So tulad ng sabi ni Chino Soar o Ultramafic? :lol:
Mukhang mas win pala yung Ultramafic eh.. mas mahal kasi siya ng halos 30usd kesa SOAR (12ft cable -- $67 SOAR vs $92 Ultramafic). Tone is in the coin pa naman. Haha!Saan ko nga ba narinig yan? :lol:
SOAR or Ultramafic? :D
Mas Gusto ko looks ng Soar :-D
pwedeng bang umorder ng Mini Soar kay sir turi?
parang mini ELC lang kasi nakita ko sa FB dati hehe
soar for the win :)
although my sound became brighter :)
i roll of a bit sa tone ngaun :)
As of now very satisfied ako sa Clear Connects. Balanced ang tunog. Not too bright and not muffled yung tunog.
+1+1
Not that we have tried better cables, pero I think too low a capacitance may not be good as well. Baka sobrang shrill at bright na nun gawa ng clarity. Baka wala na yung warmth at depth ng tunog. Clear Connects seem to be very balanced cables. :-)
+1
Ang advantage pa siguro ng "better cables" more than sa low capacitance is durability. Uber durable naman clear connects hindi lang ako solve dun sa color orange rubber niya na lumuluwag sa paglipas ng panahon. Baka sa "better cables" wala nang ganun.
Bro paano kaya mamaintain na masikip yung orange tubing ng CC? May sinabi si Turi dati na nabibili sa RAon ipapahid lang ata dun sa tubing sisikip na uli pero di ko maalala yung brand eh. Natry mo na ba o maluwag na rin yung iyo?

Parang heat shrink tubing lang din yan eh, imo.. try mo bro tapatan ng blow dry (yung pantuyo ng buhok) para mainitan, dapat mas magshishrink pa yan at kakapit..Ganun din yung akin bro. Kahit yung sa L-type plug ko ganun na rin.
Minsan dumudulas sa akin yung orange na tube na malapit mismo sa plug (for straight plugs only) lalo na pag mahigpit ang kapit sa jack.. parang yung orang tube ang unang nabubunot kesa yung plug.. hehe..
Ganun din yung akin bro. Kahit yung sa L-type plug ko ganun na rin.
Got my Blue Demon at the gear show.. Thanks Turi!! :wink:
Congrats bro! How is it?

Burst tone.

Brighter tone.. no hiss/hum
ganda talaga ng Blue Demon! Thanks Turi!! :lol: 8-)
Brighter tone compared sa anong cable?
i want red retrocoil :cry:
On tuner, I'm using Korg's Pitch Black.
On Cables... can't praise the Lava Soar cable enough. It's fookin' amazing! First time ko mapa-wow sa cable. I always knew cables play a big part in your overall sound since I first saw an Sperctaflex ad in a guitar related magazine during the mid 90's. I've been buying anything I can get my hands on. The most boutique I ever bought before the Lava Soar were George L's, Monster Bass cable and Bill Lawrence Wylde cables. Among the 3, the Wylde cable was the best for me, way way clearer that the Monster and more balanced than the George L.
All along, after doing back to back to back shoot outs with cables that I bought, I came to a conclusion that they are all basically at the same level with just minor differences. Differences you will not hear unless you really listen intensively, except for the Monster Bass cable which sucked from the first time I plugged it in. The differences between the George L's and Wylde's, compared to my favorite cable (because of sentimental value), a Whirlwind, were so minute that for me, they don't matter specially in a band setting. You really have to listen hard to distinguish the differences. I kept the Whirlwind because it's more sturdy. It's a braided cable. 15 years and still kicking. I sold everything else except 1 other George L as backup cable. For me, the Whirlwind is a very good cable... until I plugged my new Lava Soars early this morning. After hitting a few notes, in less than 1 minute, I had to go back to my remaining George L immediately to verify what I just heard. Akala ko bigla lang luminaw pandinig ko. Rinig agad yung clarity lalo na sa lower notes. Mas tighter yung sound and mas balanced across the frequency. Mas rounder yung top end, mas natural sounding. My bass sounded much bigger. Mas may jump sa mids yung George L. I never thought that there can still be a very big difference between a generally good cable and a really high end cable. The only reason I bought Lava Soar, at first, was curiosity. A lot of people are raving about it at GC and since may extra pera, I thought it might be a good time to re-baseline on cables. Now I know why it's getting a lot of rave reviews.
In my opinion, guys, if you can buy a Planet Waves Circuit Breaker, you can buy a Lava Soar. Konting ipon lang. I can't recommend Lava Soar enough. I suggest you give it a try. You might find it much better than any other cable you have tried. I was amazed at the difference it's making on my sound now that I'm going to try other high end cables, including speaker cables. Buy Lava Soar, di kayo magsisisi
Parating na ung isa sir Rey! :) Happy Valentines!

I've been using my clear connects for more than a year now. Still works perfectly.
I've been using my clear connects for more than a year now. Still works perfectly.
what's the difference between the 2?
Suffice it to say that there's a clear and noticeable difference sa dalawa in terms of eq/"clarity".
may difference ba talaga kung gumagamit ng mamahalin cables para sa good "TONE" ? eh pano yung mga gumagamit ng mga wireless units, walang cables yun hehe kagaya nila slash at duff at tumutugtog sa mga malalaking stadium with lot's of space to run around like the stage dun sa use your illusion tour nila sa japan ?feature=related
ok how come SRV at eric johnson? radioshack cables lang gamit nila ? may makakapag sabi ba na pangit ang "TONE" nila? :-D do these expensive lava cables and other expensive cables make a difference in acquiring a good "TONE" o man bling lang to :-D like bags = girls ?
nope. look at it this way - if SRV or Eric Johnson used better cables back then, their tone would have been better still. :)

^ Bro, meron difference compared sa cheap cables, as per the SRV and Eric Johnson arguement, hindi rin natin masasabi na yun mismo ang tunog nila since yung naririnig natin na tunog nila eh mastered na, maaring na mix na yan, much better kung ma-try mo personally para marinig mo ang difference. "Better tone" is subjective, maaring mag work sayo ang lava or hinde
Hindi magwo-work yan if his mind is already made up that it's overrated.

I disagree. I read an interview of cesar diaz where he mentioned that he gave srv a monster cable. srv disliked them because they pass too much "electricity".That was a monster cable. what more if it was a clearer, low capacitance cable like lava?He purposely used radioshack coily cables to tame the highs of his already bright rig.
Anyway, i'm not saying that cheap cables is the way to go. just wanna say that cable selection is very gear dependent. It also depends on the tone you want to achieve. Everybody hears differently.
as for me, using single coils and a vox amp, treble is the last thing i need. How much highs do we need anyway? I also like the reduction of gain that cheap cables have. And yes, I've tried low cap cables already. George lynch and a lava soar. Great cables, but not for me. :)
Dude, did you even bother to read the rest of this thread?

Definitely - tone is very subjective. Saying that something is universally "better" isn't right. For some, this matters a lot. For others, kahit siguro pinaka cheap na cable ok lang. More power to them.I agree with you about durability and reliability. But to be honest, it's not really a big deal to me. All problems I had with cables were simply fixed with a soldering iron. :)
But you know what isn't very subjective? Durability and reliability. God knows how many cheap cables have crapped out on me. Spending on quality (not necessarily the most expensive/most hyped cables) cables is well worth it, imo, if only for that reason. Kahit Clear Connect or George L's pwede na, in terms of reliability. Yung GL's ko, ilang taon din nagtagal sa akin (around 5-6 yata). I sold it last week pero ok na ok pa yung condition - no issues. Yung cheap cables, months lang siguro ang itatagal.
Anyhow, Monsters are crap and overpriced. (IMO, YMMV) haha if one were to use them to refer to high-quality cables.. medyo lugi talaga. Better to refer to Lava, Evidence Audio, etc. Those are fairly reasonably priced compared to the even higher end cables from Van Den Hul or Vovox.
SRV may like them better than lava though coz he doesn't like cables that pass too much signal. :-D
I agree with you about durability and reliability. But to be honest, it's not really a big deal to me. All problems I had with cables were simply fixed with a soldering iron. :)eto kailangan ng bawat gitarista.. saves our time and money.
And yes, monster cables are crap. I never said they were good to begin with. SRV may like them better than lava though coz he doesn't like cables that pass too much signal. :-D
I know some guys who prefer the coily cables for the way they dull the highs.
i personally don't like coily cables because they limit movement and add extra weight to the guitar. but this is just me. :)
Same here.. Never liked the SOAR din kasi ang stiff, yun lang talaga. Di ko trip ang bagsak..
Sticking with my Clear Connect.. Ordered a LAVA ELC, though.. :)
Uy review naman jan. Planning to get one later.. :-D
Should be here next week siguro? Mukhang mas mataba siya kesa Clear Connect. Ordered that one kasi soldered yung plugs, mukhang ok ang bagsak at hindi stiff, saka hindi sobrang mahal. I also ordered extra GH plugs, papalitan ko yung plugs ng Clear Connect ko para soldered na rin.
Will try to do a SOAR, ELC, and Clear Connect shootout when it arrives. For sure each one will be different from the other. :)
Uy review naman jan. Planning to get one later.. :-D
as far as i know, ang difference lang ng ELC sa Clear Connect is the soldered and solderless plugs. i may be wrong tho.
i personally don't like coily cables because they limit movement and add extra weight to the guitar. but this is just me. :)
Really? I have the opposite experience. hehe. I can move around freely with coily cables because I don't have to worry about getting the cable tangled up.

I need a backup cable.. please help me decide..
ELC or Magma?? <_<
Anong main cable mo ngayon Ryan? I'd go for the ELC kesa Magma pang main cable...for backup, baka yun na rin..para kung may subtle differences man sa tunog, andun pa rin pag nagpalit ako ng cable kasi kapareho pa rin..
I have not particularly tried Magma cables.. pero ELC ftmfw! :-)

So I was having problems with my Lava patch cables these past couple of weeks. Loss of signal.
Last night, binuksan ko lahat isa-isa... Then, I discovered na may isa pala sa kanila na patagilid ang pagkakatusok nung cable sa plug so hindi solid ang contact. Inayos ko, and there you go... Panalo na naman!!! :-D :-D :-D

Get both. Let's talk.
Budget restriction... hehehe
Will finish other GAS first, then, ELC na!! :razz:
I can re wire that for you if you're in Manila.
i really regretted selling my mini-ELCs last year when i sold my whole board.
but maybe next i will part of the club again. :wink:
Awwwwww... Sayang naman, men...
i had to sell it to fund wedding expenses. haha!
i edited my post bro. next week i will be part of the club again. :-D

Love that last line man. I am confident the ELC is working well for you.
Your plug will ship out today. Sorry for the delay. Jet will be giving it to you. He's the one who bought my NOC3 Pedal.

i have a feeling im the one who bought your ELC's ...
for sure though, i got a really big chunk of my ELC's in philmu... i still havent used all of them, but there is no way i am selling them lol they are just too useful
yes it's you! how are they working for you so far bro? :)
you did a better job making the connections than i did... the one's you worked on never die, while the ones i made need to be readjusted from time to time lol
really weird length though lol saving the cables?

Been doing that pero naga-GAS pa din ako. :-(
Congrats, man... Now, I believe you. Hindi ka na lulong. :-D
ibig sabihin malaki ang sweldo mo, kaya mo pang isingit ang GAS. :-D
i need to find a higher paying job soon. :lol:

got to try out my Ultramafic last night. one word - CLARITY.
before getting the Ultramafic, i had a Mogami Gold and an assembled Klotz with Neutrik plugs. the Mogami got lost so i decided that it's time to get a new cable. good thing teleclem's went on sale and he gave me a good deal so i went for it. glad i did. :)
i plugged my strat straight to my AC15 last night with the Ultramafic and the individual notes just jumped out, even when strumming chords. i first tried it out in the clean setting and the response and dynamics were really good. fingerpicking was a joy because the notes i want to emphasize just jump out. it's like everything's enhanced with this cable. in the drive setting, i was glad that the note definition and dynamics still remained. without rolling off the volume knob, i was able to get semi-clean sounds by adjusting my attack. when i dug down, it was really crunchy too.
all of these were not possible with the Klotz. :lol:
very happy with this purchase! if budget permits, i might consider getting another one. but with my set-up now, i just need one cable, and i'm glad it's the Ultramafic.
Very nice review, kapatid. :)
thanks bro! get one now if you still don't have one. :)
Actually, lumabas ang Ultramafic literally a day after ko bumili ng Soar. :cry:
So, I have 2 Soars right now na sariwang-sariwa pa at naga-GAS ako sa Ultramafic. :|
gusto ko din ma-A/B ang Soar and Ultramafic, if i have the chance. mas gusto ko lang ang material ng Ultramafic kesa sa Soar.

Talaga, may difference ba? Ibang level na to, haha. Freemansj - sayang hindi ko na test if may difference nga yung lava cable... next time! Baka naman parang "ganda ng tunog ng lava cables... uy, mali, yung planet waves pala yung nakasaksak" hehe. Biro lang mga lava-lovers :lol:
Maxi - pa demo naman nung clarity, lunch time natin i-try :-D
Anyway, pag nagka budget, kuha ako ng patch cable set from sir Turi. Very practical kasi yung size nya for pedalboards, and pag nasira, pwede palitan lang ang cable, so for long-term use. Bonus na din na maganda sya tingnan.
Curious lang ako, mas nagm matter ba yung cable for electric guitars (with passive pickups)? how about line level signals, like acoustic guitar with preamp going to a keyboard amp?
hehe pag di pa talaga maramdaman yung tone d'yan :-D
hindi ko pa rin ma-attempt kumuha ng ganyang price na cable :cry:
yung klotz ang pumigil s'kin yung itsura, hehe ang panget, mas gusto ko na dimarzio, mas priority ko gaano katibay, itsura saka pa lang tone, dahil hindi pa ko ganun kaselan sa cables :lol:
pero excited na ko sa fink cables, sana lang may maramdaman din akong improvement sa gear ko pag ginamitan ko nun ^-^

Oo nga, hindi mo na-test. Sa pedulz ka kasi nag-concentrate e. Hehehe...
Sabay nag-loose na naman ang isa sa Lava patch cables ko. :cry: :cry: :cry:
hindi advisable na madalas magpalit ng pedals pag naka-solderless plugs. dapat more or less, final na ang set-up mo or very minimal ka lang magpalit ng pedals sa board para hindi masyado nagagalaw yung mga plugs. :)
Yun nga e. Bad trip. Naayos ko na yun 3 days before the tone party. Ni-reassemble ok lahat yung patch cables at nakita ko naman kung saan yung naglu-loose. Tapos nung tone party na mismo, biglang may nag-loose na naman kahit wala naman akong ginalaw na pedals. :cry:
Technical question... Pag gumamit ako ng voltage tester (Ito nga ba ang tawag dito? Yung may red and black na bagay na naka-attach sa isang box na may pumapalong kamay. LOL!) at inilagay ko yung black and white thing sa magkabilang dulo ng patch cable, hanggang saan dapat ang palo ng kamay nung tester?
(Actually, wala pa akong tester. Bibili pa lang ako later in case na yan nga ang solution sa problema ko.)
It's called an analog multimeter. Here's a link that I find useful in assembling and testing Lava solderless patch cables. He's using a digital multimeter though :)

Ayun pala tawag dun! So magu-google ko na pala ngayon kung magkano. Hahaha! Hindi ko ma-google dati kasi hindi ko alam ang tawag sa kanya e. :lol: :lol: :lol:bili ka digital multimeter.. sa CD r king meron mura lang siya.. works well pag test ng cable.
Watching the video now. Thanks ma men!!! :wave:

if you don't want to buy anything bro, you can test if you assembled the patch cables correctly by just plugging it into an amp. hawakan mo lang yung tip nung plug na hindi nakasaksak. pag tumunog ng malakas at malinis, ok na yun. :-D

Anak ng tinapa... Ngayon ko lang nakita mga sagot nyo. Nakabili na ako ng "tester". DANG!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:ayos lang yan.. magagamit mo din yan. :wave:

Testing each cable now. :wave:
Parang nagiging comic relief na ako dito sa GC ah! Hahahaha!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
yup! no doubting that, i guess. but there are other ways to test without shelling out some money. :)
hindi naman bro! bilib lang din siguro ang mga forumites sa enthusiasm na pinapakita mo. :-D
Hahahaha!!! Ako natatawa sa sarili ko e... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Every patch cable is perfect. Mukhang mas malaki ang problema ko. :cry: :cry: :cry:
re-confirm mo by doing the test i mentioned. i-plug mo sa amp tapos pakinggan mo bro.

eto bro madami kana mapagpipilian.. may 120 pataas.
Wow! Oo nga,no?!!! Pati sa ganyan noob ako! LOL! :lol::mrgreen:
Did that also. Alaws talaga... At oks na ngayon!!! Hahaha!
Thanks sa lahat ng nag-suggest! More questions to come in the future. :lol: :lol: :lol:
which setting ba yung ginagamit mo? Yung beep mode? Try mo din yung resistance mode. Dapat zero yung mag read sa multi-meter. Besides tip to tip and ground to ground. Triy mo din i test yung tip to ground.+1 dapat ung reading 0..

+1 dapat ung reading 0..
Yep! Did all that. All the cables are disease-free! :-)
I think I already know what happened, Mark. Di ba nasa effects loop yung board mo tapos may nag-lowbatt na isang pedal? Tapos nasa front ng amp yung board ko. So, affected pa din nung lowbatt na pedal pati yung board ko kaya gumaralgal nang konti nung start ng tone party natin. Pero nung huli wala naman nang garalgal, di ba? So, I guess yun lang yun. Tagal ko din nag-test kagabi, wala naman lumabas na garalgal. Akala ko nga nung una may pedal ako na sira e. Hehehe... :-D :-D :-D
nakay Mark ngayon yung Ultramafic, Pete. :-D
Hahahaha! Maga-GAS sya dun, bro!!!
Ayoko pumunta pala kina Mark this week. Baka pati ako ma-GAS! LOL!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ultramafic in stock :)
Oh crap... Nakalimutan ko pa napo-post sa classifieds yung 2 Soars ko. Ayan na si Gafather! :-D
Pwede na siguro sa 6.5k yung dalawang Soar, no? Isang 12 feet, isang 15 feet. :-)
dapat mas lalo mo bisitahin si Mark bro. para ma-A/B niyo yung Soar and Ultramafic. :)
Ngunit marupok ako, kapatid... :cry: :cry: :cry:
kaya nga mas lalo mo dapat ma-try bro. if the tonal difference is not that big, then you can stick with your Soars. :-D
Ngunit ayaw ko yung texture ng Soar. So about 90% sure na ako na mag-u-Ultramafic! Hahaha!
ah kung yan nga ang consideration mo, mag-Ultramafic ka na. :-D
I recorded a comparison between a regular Dimarzio Cable that I have vs. Maxi's Ultramafic: http://youtu.be/aGP9yfOeA68 (http://youtu.be/aGP9yfOeA68). I don't know if recording it and uploading to youtube will give it justice though. My wife said the Ultramafic has more body... (I successfully planted a seed in her head -- lavas are great cable... next GAS secured! >:D)

Meron din ako niyan. Pangit nga! Malinaw e. Ang dumi tuloy ng tugtog ko. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Mini SOAR kit was such a joy to assemble... :wave:
I assembled 8 before, namaga daliri ko. Hahaha! :eek:
Mini soar? o mini ELC?
hahaha.. gusto ko soldered eh, kaya naka mini soar ako.. gumawa muna ako ng dalawa.. ang linis.. :-)
Ay, sensya na. Mini Soar pala sabi mo. Sa iphone lang kasi ako nagbasa. Sablay na naman! Hahaha! :eek:
Haha. Ok lang bro. Tatlo na ginawa ko. Yung isa, pahiram ko muna kay Cayle. Hehe. Pag may nadagdag akong pedal, kunin ko na rin sa kanya. Hahaha. May dalawa pang di ko naaassemble. Saka na.. :-)
Yung Mini Soar ba parang Soar na gaya sa kin ang balot nung cable?
Hindi bro.. Rubber pa rin ang labas nitong mini soar.
Napansin ko, mas manipis yung cable ng mini soar kumpara sa mini ELC.. Ang main na difference lang niya sa mini ELC at hawig sa actual na SOAR cable ay solid wire yung gamit sa gitna.. Diba yung mini ELC, stranded pa rin yung core na wire? Etong mini soar ay solid..
Pero hindi siya kagaya ng SOAR cable na stiff.. flexible pa rin yung mini soar to some extent.. :-)
Yeah, busalsal yung cable sa gitna ng ELC kasi hindi papasok yung tungkil nung plugs kung solid e. Aba, solid pala ang sa Mini Soar! Kailangan nga hinangan pala pag ganon... :)
Hahaha. Oo bro. Pareho sila nung kapatid niyang SOAR. Pero natutuwa ako dun sa cable. Medyo bulky pero malinis siya. Ewan ko lang yung tone tone ha, nitong mga nakaraang araw kasi, di na ako masyado picky sa fine tuning tone. Kesho clear o muddy o muffled, etc... Basta mapagkabit-kabit ko yung pedals ko at may nakukuha naman akong magandang tunog sa amp ko, happy na ako. :-)
Basta pag sinabi ng tester na continuous ang signal ng cable mo, pwede na yun!!! Hehehe...
:lol: :lol: :lol:
papakit ako ng cable, may promo dito, libre na HBO :lol:
speaking of lava, gamit ko eh magma lang, pang mahirap... tapos di pa pantay, mang george yung isa :eek:
Anong HBO? Yung movie channel? LOLOLOLOLOL!!!! :lol:
mahal cable dito, kelan pa ng deposit. :lol:
malayo ba lava compared sa canare? or sa neutrik?
pag pumalo na drummer, di na malalaman difference ng cables eh :lol:
pero gusto ko ng cable na fiber optic, para walang tone loss :-D
looking for pancake plugs and I found :-D
Hicon plugs + lava mini elc
looks interesting.GAS!
(http://www.lavacable.com/assets/images/hicon_2_bg.jpg)
Seriously, sa Planet Waves ko lang sya na-compare at malaki ang difference. Clear na clear talaga ang tunog. I'm not sure kung nakita mo na yung soundclips na gawa ni Markcasq. Meron sya ni-post somewhere in this thread. Dimarzio yata yung pinagkumparahan nya. Sobrang obvious ang difference. :-D
Where'd you found this bro?
Interesting. May straight version din daw, apart from the R/A. These will be the smallest available in the market.
agree! but will it be the most space saving? the cables can be bent in the case of the R/A plugs. but with straight plugs, can it still be done?

I don't see any reason why it isn't possible. Mas ok pa nga kasi hindi siya mabubunot sa plug kasi dun nakasolder bro. :-)
i was at Audiophile MOA yesterday and found some lava cables...
mukang sila na local (store) distributor nito...
di ko lang na-check ang prices nila kaya di ko pa ma-compare sa pricing epictone... :-D
Help naman po sa mga Lava Mini ELC Solder Free Patch Cable users.. Kabibili ko pa lang ng kit sa Audiophile at isang patch pa lang natatry ko i-assemble. Hindi ko alam if magkaka issue siya with noise or hum pero kasi nung tinesting ko yun isang ginawa ko sinaksak ko lang sa input ng amp. Wala naman problem sa signal or conduction niya kasi sinasalat ko yung kabilang PL ok naman. Pero unlike sa ibang soldered patch na nasa bahay na tinesting ko rin for comparisson, pag naka plug yung lava (no pedal connected sa patch cable) pag tinaasan ko yung volume e talagang may hum unlike sa soldered cables na kahit itaas mo yun volume e talagang wala kang maririnig na hum or unwanted noise if meron man very minimal. I dont know if its normal at mawawala yun hum once naka kabit na sa pedals pero kasi baka may mali sa assembly process ko at maubos ko kakaputol yun cable pero may kulang pala sa ginagawa ko. Sinundan ko lang kasi yun instruction as listed dun sa Kit. Help lang po mga kapatid. Salamat! :-D
Salamat sa suggestion bradder. Yes, gusto ko na nga i try sana sa pedals kaya lang kasi baka may mali kulang nga talaga sa ginagawa ko tapos hindi ko na mabalik pag nagkatabas tabas na yun cables kung sakali hehehe..
You are overthinking again!!! LOL! :lol:
Search mo na lang sa YouTub, bro... Step by step talaga yung video na nakita ko doon dati nung nag-assemble ako ng solderless Lava patch cables ko. :-D
Nice idea sir. Pag uwi ko ma check yan :wave:

Pete meron na nung mini ELC sa soldered. Halos same type ng plug pero soldered na. :)
problematic talaga ang pag-assemble. you have to get it right or else it can fail you in the middle of a gig. :eek:
Pete meron na nung mini ELC sa soldered. Halos same type ng plug pero soldered na. :)
mahirap kasi kung assembled na sa case ni Pete since naka-PT JR siya. may isang mahabang cable dapat na mag-connect sa last pedal sa first level and first pedal sa 2nd level.
tama ba ako, Pete? :)
Yep! Pero parang solderless na MIni ELC din yung sinasabi ni Chino. Ang difference lang is kailangan mo sya i-solder.
aahh so pwede din pala custom lengths. interesting. :wink:

Yup! Mas prefer ko mag solder nalang. hehe. Mukhang okay din yung bagong set na Switchcraft 229 (pancake plug) ang kasama.
di lang daw kayo marunong gumamit....
:-D
problem???
ganun din setup ko ngaun maxi boy. dati nag up down up down dahil gusto ko ung 2 od sa baba tapos ung tuner nasa taas lang. san ba makahanap ng mga pwede pagkuhanan ng idea sa wiring?

Boss Pete, mini ELC lang binili noon. I think 90 per foot or meter ata. Tapos Amphenol plugs c/o In Tune.,
