Low profile slim XLR connectors (male-female)

thingiverse

I always liked to mount my audio interface underneath the desk to get some free real estate on my desk, but I always had to mount it 8cm -10cm (3"-4") behind the edge so that I don't bump onto the XLR connector all the time. Which worked fine, but made it a pain to adjust on the fly. I was looking for a solution to the problem, but right angle XLR seemed to add alot of leverage if I ever bumped it, and I was worried I would break something. I was looking for a low profile male XLR connector and I only found it available from cabletechniques, but the price was way too expensive for a single connector. So I decided to design my own inspired by their design. I use the original "pin assembly" from my cable to make the connection and designed around that. This should work as long as the connector shield is use for electrical connection. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK Inspired by: https://www.cabletechniques.com/lopro-cables
