    Do you want them pre-broken, or would you prefer the excitement of it happening at a suitably inconvenient moment later?

    Point taken, in my defence I do own two of them and they have been good as gold! But yeah, why tempt fate!

    Sorry, just a bit of a joke - they are the least reliable cables I've ever come across. A customer of mine had six of them, which he brought to me when he was down to the last working one...

    The problem is the plugs - they're just utter crap. The cable itself is actually very good, but it's also very fat and difficult to get into decent plugs like Neutriks. Right-angle NP2RXs will fit (just), as will the old NP2Cs, but the straight slimline NP2Xs won't unless you're prepared to drill out the clamp.

    I can't find the one I had, anyway - I think I might have fixed it and given it to someone as a spare.

    Anything properly made with Neutrik plugs and good cable like Van Damme.

    Congratulations @ICBM, this wins the internet for today.  I actually snorted my Vimto out of my nose when I read this. I have also owned these and had them crap out on me too.
