Review on 🎧 Rankie 3.5mm to Dual Male RCA Adapter Audio Cable for Stereo, 6 Feet by Brad Schaefer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Yes, there are differences in the cables.

I bought this to connect my Fire to the receiver and it works perfectly. I bought another cable from this big auction to save a few bucks thinking they're all pretty much the same...wrong! We recently got a software update for the Fire but couldn't get the same sound out and had to crank the receiver up to 50 just to hear the words. I tried the Fire with this cable on another receiver and it worked fine at around 30 volume (Fire's volume is always set to maximum). I then moved the fire and cable back into the room, we had problems and everything was fine... problem solved. Initial suspicions were that the Fire 3.5mm port or receiver was defective, but it was clearly a cable which we initially thought was fine because it worked perfectly when connected to our Walkman cassette player . I'm not sure why this worked on the Walkman and not the Fire, but it's clear that not all cables work as they used to and/or stop working over time. Still 5 stars for this one and I threw away the old adapter and bought a new one with great reviews and brand name... not saving a buck to save a buck.

Pros
  • Smooth, high-quality stereo sound. Separated by regular red and white RCA connectors. The RCA connectors have convenient handles for plugging and unplugging while still providing reliability
Cons
  • I'm writing back
