Source for uncommon cables ?

Hi,

I'm looking for an uncommon cable. Does anyone have a good on-line USA source other than BH Photo? I would just like an alternative, mostly for the case below, which is currently out of stock at BH Photo.
Cable for Audio Technica AT825 stereo microphone, length 18" or slightly shorter :

$40 Remote Audio 5-Pin Stereo XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y-Cable - 18"

As Doug said, Trew is great - 100% professional and they specialize in film and video. Also Coffey Sound and Gotham Sound are a couple of other industry standards. Full Compass is a good source for broadcast, production, and performance oriented audio & video gear as as well.

By coincidence, Trew has made me that exact cable!
Great folks.

Thanks a ton for the audio source recommendations. I used to buy everything from physical stores, but I guess my video needs exceed the local stock.

One more place to check that may be able to help http://www.markertek.com/
Usually, if they don't have it they can build it.

Amazon have a similar cable

Amazon stock a similar cable. Ignore the picture which shows 1-male, 2-female (which they also stock).

http://www.amazon.com/Horizon-XLR-Fe...A102741HTMO4U3

Do you think one of these would be easy to solder up to the exact right length for my setup, preferably with a 90-degree plug on the female end so the cable drops nicely from the back of a camera-mounted mic?

On 2nd thoughts I'm not convinced that Amazon cable is stereo on the femal end. The original cable Gints Klimanis is now in stock again at B&H.
