I'm going to make my own RCA interconnect for my Squeezebox Touch which will connect to a vintage Yamaha integrated amp which is connected to some vintage JBL L112 speakers.
I've seen these Neutrik NF2CB/2 connectors which are on the expensive side. The big deal being:
Are these worth the premium (~$15/pair)? Would I need to terminate both ends with these for them to be effective? Anything to help keep my vintage JBL L112s safe would be worthwhile but just wondering how effective they are really.
In terms of connectors, I guess some are fancier, but as long as the solder points are good and (gold) plating not done cheaply there's not much difference no?
Is there a well regarded bang for the buck RCA connector out there? Canare's?

- Makes ground before signal contact and breaks signal before ground
- No more disturbing noise and broken speaker cones
