OK, I've got contacts at the machine shop here to build Collettes.   That will begin 1 August.  I've also got a query out to someone on TS.com who has collettes already made.  Either way, this *is* going to move forward...

See you in August...

Just another "blackboard" drawing.  Someone already offered me some collettes, but I decided to do it here rather than wait.

They are simple anyways.  Just an aluminum tube with an m19 thread on one end.

I'm a little confused.  I thought AKG already made active cables for the blue line.  Its the MK 90/3 + H 98.  I apoligize, if we are talking about something else.
