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 was just trying to have fun with these DIY Interconnects / XLR experiment. I understand there are limitless quality, pricewise cables out there.
When I sat and listened to my Stereo-system, I was there, in front of the music. Never thought this system is High-end, Low-end, Medium-end or Half ass-end.
What do you consider High-end, the price, the brand or else?
Please de-fine High-end.

Most everything you mention is what a professional recording studio or musician/live sound engineer would use. Reasonable prices for excellent quality raw material. Try some RG-6 quadshield coax if you want to really have a performance value. Spending a few bucks to DIY with great results vs. a few thousand bucks for the same results from a "boutique" vendor.

"...limitless quality, pricewise cables out there." L0L! Why won't anybody making these subjective claims consent to a blind listening test? Afraid of the results?

WHY? There is no need to please you, you're not the one buying the product.

Buy YOUR own stuff and run your own blind test..  Silly..
If you have an issue with something, it's not up to ANYONE to make YOU or anyone else feel better or verify anything for you.

If you're happy with your cable result, post it. If you're unhappy with someone else result, because they heard something different. TOO BAD!!! Not a thing in the world to do with you.. In other words mind your own business. NO ONE here owes you anything... Lest of all WHY it sounds different to them and NOT to you... Who cares what you think. Come and go like a FART in the wind... WORTHLESS!!!

Being so triggered by objectiveness must suck for you. Subjectiveness has no benchmark...and can be claimed by anyone with mental illness, and pretend...delusions of grandeur that don’t really exist...except in your own mind. Psychology is very powerful.
