which mogami bulk cable for DIY patch cables

[antichef]

Since reading Somnium7's post about making cables, I found some nice Neutrik connectors, and I've been retrofitting a bunch of my crappy cables. Now, I want to get a nice roll of bulk Mogami cable so that I can make TRS patch cables, but every time I go to Markertek, I get confused because there are several different "models" of cable.

Would this one be good?

if not, or if there's a better one (or a different one that you use), please post

That link didn't work for me, but I like 2552 for patch cables, it's thinner than what I would use for a mic cable, and quite flexible.

thanks! That link was for 2549, btw

Well that's more standard mic cable stuff. I guess the question is are you just buying for patch cables, or for patch and mic cables? If the latter, I wouldn't get 2552, I don't consider it really durable enough to step on etc.
