Hi,

I've had a heck of a time trying to put together this cable, as embarrassing as that sounds. 
I've put together 10+ DIY units but stripping & terminating cables properly isn't my forte I guess.
And now I've damaged the crimps and shortened the cable a lot trying to cut-redo-cut-redo-cut-redo and it's still not even and the balancing wire always ends up too short or long.

Would any 3-pin female-to-female connector work if I went and bought one on Amazon or elsewhere? Or does it have to be shielded/balanced? 

Would something like this (little longer though) work?

Shielded cable is what I recommend but, for a very short length and all enclosed inside a metal case, these would  probably not make a big difference. Worth a a try. Let us know the outcome.
