Good Quakity (permanent installation)

I bought this to connect a 3rd generation point to my audio system. The picture quality is good, the sound is excellent. A tip for anyone doing the same: be sure to turn the dots all the way up or your amp will have a hard time reaching an acceptable volume. I assumed the dots output volume was at a fixed level - the volume is tied to the settings at the top of the dots block. Good cable for fixed installation.

Pros
  • Audio cable
Cons
  • Some bugs

Works great, No: Accessories and supplies

I use this cable to connect my computer output to a vintage Pioneer amp. That would be five stars, but the one I got has the left and right channels reversed. Someone at the factory must have misapplied the colored rings. It's not really a problem, just move the balance controls from side to side when you plug them in and switch when they're upside down. The otherwise high quality heavy duty shielding and insulation, the plastic welds are strong and the connectors are solid and solid. Aโ€ฆ

Very good, comparable to Monster brand cables

I was totally amazed at the quality of this cable, I bought a Cinch brand cable from my local Walmart store 2 months ago and it started to click at every touch click and click the cable and didn't let him sit, in the end he stopped working altogether. I was wary of "RevainBasics" but compared to the Monster branded cable I have for my TV it's on par, connections are solid, hardware is polished and made of quality metal, cable is thick and feels very strong and yet flexible. Will definitely buyโ€ฆ

Does not mate with RCA plugs

A regular male RCA plug has the outer pins made of flat metal so that it can be plugged into an RCA socket even if it is installed in the equipment case. In this particular product, the outer pins are not flat sheets of metal, but a thick piece of metal that tapers to the size of the connector body. This means that these connectors can only be used on protruding RCA connectors, not on pluggable ones. The connectors are undoubtedly sleeker and more modern than the old cables, and they are, but a

  • RCA cable

Upgrade after 8 months still 500

For the price when I checked it was the cheapest cable from the brand. I had never purchased Revain Basics products before and was skeptical. I mean, after cables comes phone cases in terms of third-party quality. Arrived on time, the connectors seemed solid and of good quality, the sound was clear as far as I could tell. Only the thing will be the cable itself. The material had no particular (read: none) rigidity. I'm a little worried that one short tug and it will break one day. Overall, Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Audio and Video Accessories
Cons
  • Cable shorter than other options

Not compatible with built-in RCA jacks

Regular RCA plugs have flat metal pins on the outside so they can be mated with an RCA jack even if it is installed in the device. In this particular product, the outer pins are not flat sheets, but a thick piece of metal that tapers to the size of the connector body. This means that these connectors can only be used on protruding RCA connectors, not on pluggable ones.

Not using any coax cables

So I got these cables to cut and plug into RCA jacks. I was happy to find that the cables have double shielded coaxial cable inside. These are two coax wires AND wires around them for shielding. However when I checked with an ohmmeter I found that no coax cables were used, basically both sides of the coax cable were connected to the center pin of the RCA. Then the outer metal shield is the earth. It's not a big deal, it's just funny that they paid extra for coax cable and then didn't use it. Iโ€ฆ
