Review on πŸ”Œ Cable Matters 2 Pack Adapter Degree: Maximize Connectivity with Effortless Flexibility by Monty Barganier

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Materials are of acceptable quality, but poor design leads to a defect.

The idea behind these 90 degree connectors is great if you have a connection near a wall as they allow you to connect the cable at an angle so the cable doesn't jump out protrudes from the component Unfortunately, these connectors are of very poor design that does not provide a reliable signal connection from plug to socket. When I received the item I was satisfied with the appearance as it is gold plated and physically designed. This was what I needed to hook up the DAC to a pair of powered speakers near the wall. When I connected them and the cable to it I got a very weak signal from one channel while the other channel sounded fine. I've been playing around with the connectors, swapping out cables and adapters, and found that one is definitely not working properly. threads pushed straight into the main body) and I found that there was no cable connecting the male connector to the B-pillar female connector. Instead, it's just a plug that "makes contact" with an outlet. No solder, no twisted wire, just a very careful point of contact that over time will surely degrade the signal on the working connector if it hasn't already broken on one. I put the pieces together, but I won't be using that now, and I've already replaced it with a much better joint. This is not a reflection of the seller, as I received the goods quickly, but I have doubts about the quality of other goods that the seller can sell.

Pros
  • That's great
Cons
  • Not bad
