Clockwise or counter looking at the panel?


I apologize for the stupid quesion but I have a set of MIT interconnects with locking RCA's that I a trying to remove. When I installed them, I only tightened by hand but now when trying to remove them they don't budge either way. I was going to take the pliers to them but didn't want to tighten them further by accident. I assume counter clockwise (that being how most things unscrew)but it didn't work by hand....

let me add another warning. as most people have said, mit's locking clamps work in reverse. you hold the stationary part, and rotate the moving part clockwise, and it will travel back towards you. HOWEVER, some of those damn cables can still be quite stuck on, even in the loosest position. you can yank the connection right off your amp or preamp if you're not careful. you have to kind of walk it back off still. and of course, MIT makes cables that don't have locking clamps, that just have your standard tightening mechanism like all other cables. if you're dealing with one of those, it's back to cfb's rhyme. the new 330 series has the locking clamps. the terminator series is like other cables.
