richieb Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Look at AudioGon as there are numerous folks selling cottage industry cables. Any length your heart desires and many from quality materials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edzu1234 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thanks Guys for all your valued input. I was looking for a little higher quality of cable than Blue Jean or Monoprice. I was hoping to pick up some interconnects from someone that went from Separates to a Receiver, and didn't need the cable anymore, and was looking to pick up some cash, instead letting the cables just sit around.

Moderators Youthman Posted May 24, 2016 Moderators Share Posted May 24, 2016 I was looking for a little higher quality of cable than Blue Jean or Monoprice. Are you looking for something that just has a nicer look to the cables? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edzu1234 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Better shielding and better wrapping would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I use quite a few of these, excellent quality. http://www.knukonceptz.com/mobile-audio/rca-cables/krystal-rca-kables/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richieb Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I just found you oodles of six foot and over IC's all done up in wrapping and well shielded, some for as little as $600-$700. What a deal. Now the purttier ones filled with actual snake oil to dampen each and every foot and extend all frequency high and low can be had for under $3K. Another good value.

CECAA850 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 If you need better shielding than what Blue Jeans offers, you need to look into XLR's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthews Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I just bought a small batch of "KnuKoncepts" interconnects as well. Very nice quality for an extremely nice price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJkizak Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 HOT DOG!!! Thanks, Bill. That was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you everyone for your input! Just make sure those gold fittings don't fit too tight or you will pull out the connectors on the amps and preamps. (been there done that) Then you will say why did I pay big money for this gold crap that fits too tight? JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted May 25, 2016 Moderators Share Posted May 25, 2016 I thought that too but it seems like they have springs that manage the amount of tension Snap Lock Connectors Snap lock connectors ensure an excellent connection every time. We use internal bowed contact springs that secure tightly, but release when pulled while maintaining tension over repeated use. Many split designs such as slot cuts are inconsistent; either too light – potentially damaging equipment when inserting or pulling out or too loose, not maintaining a secure connection.

babadono Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 OMG All the fancy schmancy connectors and cable colors don't mean d#$k with unbalanced interconnects(except for looks). The only thing that matters is the resistance of the shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
