I can paypal you the cash in a flash.

If anyone is interested I'll see if I can track them down. matt ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 03:56:06 AM PST US From: "Tony Antoniou" Subject: RE: XDP4000X-List: where to put? --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Tony Antoniou" I do. I haven't had much joy sourcing one in Australia. Even Sony Australia have taken it off their website.

It's in every sony dealer/service center, of various lengths too. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 04:04:09 AM PST US From: "Tony Antoniou" Subject: RE: XDP4000X-List: where to put? --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Tony Antoniou" You can extend any kind of electrical cable if: a) It's done very neatly b) You use same quality cable in between. This isn't just an exercise in soldering some spare 24AWG hobby wire 3#-) I've had the liberty of splicing 100pair Belden shielded cables at the Olympics in Athens and it was not fun, but not impossible either and the audio carried on it was still good for all audio. You won't need to worry about any balancing transformers for the task either. That's more to do with matching up mismatched impedances between the equipment at both ends than the actual cable, at least over a short run like that anyway. In this case, both the DSP and the head unit are designed with the same impedances anyway so there's no problem.
