I prefer silver cables myself. Qables.com has a nice selection!!

Fetalgoat: Radio shack cables are terrible. Don't mean to sound rude but every radio shack cable I've owned has basically fallen apart in less than 6 months. The cables on that link look a bit better quality than what I'm used too though .I appreciate your perspective, and, as regards mostly all cables sold by the Shack, I would agree. However, one, I trust Billy's judgement implicitly, and two, because of an urgent, unexpected need, I need to purchase three pairs of affordable, decent quality, usable 2m/6ft RCA interconnect cables at some brick and mortar store tomorrow!
Any other suggestions?

I'd rate the construction quality as similar to any "budget" Monster cable you're likely to find in a B&M store, and the AR cables are significantly cheaper. The RCAs usually sell for between $12-15/pair. |
