Let me know and I will get them, if they are in good shape, and you are willing to sell them for a good price...

Cobalt Cable is excellent and is only about twice the price of BJC. Try them out and if you don't like the product you have 90 days to return it. All cables are custom built to order.

HDMI Cables, Audio Cables & Audio Patch Cables - Cobalt Cable

On checkout, enter coupon word SHARESAVE and you will get 15% off the price.

The only way to get a better deal than "best bang for the buck" is to get it for free. Perhaps some high end company will IM you and offer you cables for free if you chat them up in this forum.

See ya

Are you having problems with the Blue Jeans, or are you just looking to try something different? If you're just looking for something different, you'd do well to ask for loaners or test cables from companies. See if you can hear a difference before you buy.

Also, consider the used cable market. At Audiogon, used ones seem to go for 25% to 50% of retail.

has anyone ever used RamElectronics RCA to Mini or Mini to Mini interconnects? they seem like a pretty good bang for the buck company using Belden and Mogami cable.

me been curious about them and BlueJeans since before I got me EarCandy Mini to Mini. how they may compare to me Ear Candy. I'm in need for a RCA to Mini because I need to get away from this Z1 and RCA to Mini adapter. I really want an EarCandy so I will be using the alike interconnects with the same signature. I really like the EarCandy over the Cardas HPI I was using but if the RamElectronics or BlueJeans are as good why not..

Great choice!
I would go with silver bullets (hence my $140 price quote), to have a cable with silver all the way in the signal path. But you and your wallet have to decide.
