I've tried loads of cables over the years, selling them, making them, repairing them, using them of course, etc. Most very high - end cables I tend to dislike because they usually are unreasonably thick and / or stiff. Stiff to the point where they can't lay in a straight line anymore, and the falloff is atrocious. This cable is just a bit stiff at the beginning, but does loosen up with use, and isn't that stiff to begin with. They "sound" great, very clear, punchy, feels like you're getting the entire picture, I haven't felt a noticeable difference between these and the ridiculously priced ones. Perhaps with an oscilloscope, in a lab environment, while the cables lay over a 2 kilowatt transformer, the pricy one will be a tad quieter, but in the real world it is beyond ludicrous to compare the signal integrity of copper versus...also copper. Anyhow, moving on. The jacket is extremely durable, You could probably run it over with a rack full of gear and nothing would happen to it, as it is surprisingly tough. Not much else to say about these, if You're good with a soldering iron, this cable and a couple of neutriks will make you a cable that would otherwise cost over 40-50 bucks, and one that will last You for a very long time. Absolutely proper, serious cable, unless your crew uses pizza cutters instead of caster wheels. Fantastic, do recommend!
