I solved this problem with a set of custom CopperHead cables,
while not "concours correct", they are beautifully made and
provide the ultimate in connectivity. At $75.00 a set they are not
cheap, but I believe the axiom, "you get what you pay for". The
website is: http://www.copperheadcables.com
The splash page is slow to load but well worth the wait, some of
you folks may have seen their display at VTR or Triumphfest. I
know I am very impressed with the quality of the product.
