The plugs are obviously gold plated and the outer sleeve screws off. The inner parts are also all gold plated as is the central pin. I have had this cable for a number of years but not been able to identify it. If anyone can help me identify the RCA plugs that would be great:scratch:. Don't think there is any chance identifying the cable though as there is nothing on it at all except its blue and has some direction arrows:lol:

Looks like it could be a DIY cable? The connectors look similar to ones that Maplins used to sell some years back and the cable is reminiscent of some early Sharkwire cable (also sold by Maplins) but I may be way out here.

No, I think they're longer in the barrel than the Maplin ones and the knurling is in the wrong place.

You could be right. I've used both in the past, but as Chris says the plugs do look slim. Maplins did stock more than one size though. Variants of this plug have sold on eBay too. It's not a design I like, awkward to fit and with regular use the clamped cable outer braid screen had been known to separate. Not a plug I'd use again.
