Review on Monoprice Premier Right Angle 16AWG Portable Audio & Video by Russell Ross

Well, I was seduced by the low price and first-class delivery. Bought four of these pedalboard guitars, hooked them up and found they were all mics. Move the cable even a little and you'll hear a lot of crackling and hissing. Touch the cable and it sounds like you're tapping a microphone. Microphonics occurs when small voltages are generated when the cable moves or comes into contact with it. These voltages are amplified by the drive pedals, your amp, etc. This results in audible hissing, popping, and hissing when you move, hit, or touch it. A little movement and you'll hear it in your signal chain. All cables are mic to some extent, but with a quality cable you'll never notice it. It might not make much of a difference for your particular setup if you're sure your cables will never be affected, or maybe not using it with a guitar. low, I would recommend spending a little more and buying from a reputable cable company that doesn't let their cables exhibit these horrible qualities.
