The Van Damme with neutrik plugs are good quality, around £20 per meter, or of course the freebie ones that come with CD players might be fine:cool:

Can highly recommend Cambridge Audio Pacific interconnects - excellent!

Still very popular and go for between £14 and £20 used on eBay.

Yes the Van damme/ Neutrik is made up by a lot of sellers who offer real VFM. I look for sellers who make up leads themselves with locking plugs etc.

I have all the leads from QED, IXOS, Ecosse, Atlas but many were bought second hand. Some of my faves have WBT plugs on them. I just like to try different leads.... some braided.... silver spiral etc

I got a lovely 3m headphone extension cable made with Neutrik connectors and blue Van Damme cable.

Look on ebay as it seems to be the go to combination for value at the moment

:scratch: I dont need any interconnects, quite happy with the Yannis Tome 423.5 Phono Silver-Litz tonearm cable,
and the interconnect he made for my cdp.

My reference to the Cambridge Audio Pacific is from experience way back in the early days of my journey not current and yes,
in answer to the ops question I did find it to be a good cheap interconnect ;)

Has anyone tried the Schitt Pyst RCA (https://schiit.eu.com/accessories-cables/pyst-cable). Short but only £17.50.

Just seen this thread and ordered myself a pair as the QED ones I've got at the moment are from the 90's and looking a bit ruff and tarnished! :)

I'm using some klotz that Brian on here made, excellent, I mentioned the van Damme one as the op wanted cheap and good, not that Brian s klotz are pricey :)
