Rating: Summary: Cheap and Functional Review: I bought this cable a while ago to connect my computer to my stereo receiver. The cable shields fairly well and is of decent quality for the price. It is not gold-tipped, which means that the connectors may oxidize after several years, but I do not see this as a big problem. A balanced cable from Monster or Acoustic Research would give better performance, but the Recoton series is fine for most applications. I plan to buy two more to connect my 6-channel sound card to a 5.1 receiver I am getting for Christmas.
