yep....soldered connections, crimped bottom holding them in place, and then heat shrunk. Very nice

For $10 can not find a thing to complain about....I like the simple look too. Also the ends are available in gold...


FYI those are PG arc 600 series next to them.

But what type of cable design is being used, you care to remove heat-shrink from one?
I think we've established that "Ka Ka" and "Tukki Tukki" don't work.

Not really...but when I called them the tech said they were dual twisted, and triple shielded.

I see cheap single shield coax cable..........just me though.

You should have 2 insulated wires for twisted and 4 for dual twisted. For single shield you will have foil over the inner braid, dual shield would be an additional braided wire set, and triple would be another layer of foil........you paid good money for the same coax cable that ships as a freebie with a VCR, just apply RCA ends.

pretty much :oops: :oops: o well I highly doubt there is any audubile difference in RCAs. I never heard any....

My biggest thing is as long as they are soldered so they dont fall apart.

Maybe if I'll take ur knock offs...but those audiobahns I had before just fell apart and they were pretty much the same build as yours cept they used the triangle ends.

i bet you can tell the difference between twisted pair and coax.....

but for me at least....twisted pair sounds like twisted pair.



you should buy those $14500 ones and see if you can hear the difference....i wonder what their return policy is :P

I still doubt I could hear the difference besides noise rejection.
