RCA Interconnect.

I have been in the Stereo system for 50+yrs and was always very2 skeptical about any "Cable-effect" to the system.
I am retired now and decided to see if there is any and DIY some RCA/XLR Interconnects.
All cables are 3ft each and has Neutrik NF2C RCA Proffesional at the end.
The Cables are:
1. Belden Brilliance 8412- $1.48/ft
2. Van Damme Silver Series Lo-cap 55 - $4,50/ft
3. Neotech Nemoi 3220 Directional - $ forget/ft.
3. Mogami 2534 - $1,59/ft. for an XLR cable 3ft each terminated with Neutrik NC3 XLR Connector.
It was Game-changer and Ear-opening for me.
From this moment I am using RCA Interconnect cable made of Van Damme Silver Series in my system, its more open, detail, so clear and suitable for my ears compare to other.

I also 50+. Depending on your equipment, the better, the more important interconnects. You can experience “component level” upgrades through interconnects and cables... which is why there is a huge market for $5K and higher interconnects and cables. Audiophiles are not just gullible. I have many jaw dropping moments over the last 50 years. Probably the biggest was replacing a digital interconnect I was absolutely sure could not make a difference. Welcome to the world of the others components... interconnects, cables, and power cords.

btw... in general. Copper is warm, silver is detailed (and can be harsh), silver coated copper can be just right.
