Beautiful modern cinch cable.

This cable does not meet my expectations. It's thinner and smaller than I expected. It has a more modern design. It's more of a cinch cable like KabelDirekt. The wire is thinner and the RCA connector is also smaller in size and more compact in design. Recommend this cable for shorter runs and audio applications. For longer runs (over 10 feet) and for component video, you may need a heavier gauge cable with a thicker section and a larger RCA jack that can provide the separation you need. What worries you about those little jacks and thin wire? therefore it is not possible to achieve a resistance of 75 ohms. Also, who knows what the capacity is like (although it could be improved due to the smaller size). The jacks are well insulated and seem well rated for their size, but it's hard to tell how far apart the positive and negative terminals are in the jack and what type of shielding or insulation is used to keep them separate and not to interact. They should be fine for your MP3 player or bluetooth device and work fine for short runs. A CD player should also work well for small print runs. Also, they should be better than the regular unshielded RCA cable that comes with many components. I have to test the cable again. When I first tried hooking up a CD player and amplifier I thought I found some very high pitched ringing somewhere in the 19-20kHz range. The ringing seems to have stopped, but I'll try anyway. few other things before giving it an unqualified high recommendation. If I find anything unusual I will try to report it with additional information. It's also possible that the cable is the best available for under $30, just not sure yet.
