I know there is a related thread but my request is a bit different.

What is a good Mini-to-RCA cable in the 20 dollar range that is 1-2' long. I'd like it to be easy to bend, if that makes any sense, like the cheap one I have is almost unbendable.

$20?

You can try the used cable sales forum, they pop up every now and then,

otherwise Rat shack would be your only alternative, though rat shack would be considered poor rather than good.

Well Radioshack carries this:

which doesn't look too bad except the fact it's 8 foot long.

Shellbrook Audio Lab offers one for $18 + shipping. I don't know how bendable it is though. Canare Star Quad isn't known to be the most flexible cable, but it's not stiff either.

I have a 7' Belkin pureAV mini-to-RCA cable I got from Circuit City for around $20, I think. Definitely no more than $25. It's extremely flexible - more so than any other cable I've felt (except for the stock cable of my AKG 271). I like it a lot! You can't look it up on Belkin's site though, as it hasn't worked in a long time. But it's a great cable IMO. If you're not hung up on the 1-2' length, I'd definitely recommend it.

i remember seeing Acoustic Research cable at one of those brick and mortar store, they should be decent. i think the cheapest alternative and getting the best sound at the same time would be to post a want to buy thread at the sale forum so someone can custom make one for you.

DIY!!! It's fun and usually cheaper!

 

[terrymx]

cheap if you are planning to built alot of cables on the long run, but not cheap if you're just wanting one cable.

Headroom has the Straightwire mini to RCA at 16" for $19.95.

Which would you go with (30 dollar is acceptable)

I like the idea of having an Audioquest cable just because I think they look cool, but to be honest I've never been in the camp that can hear the differences between cables.... I just want something that is higher quality than radio shack.
