Yep - I didn't like the look of them at all, either from the multiple connection aspect or the strain on your component sockets from the lever created by them sticking out that far.

The oriton thingy's were reviewed recently and got 5 stars if I remember correctly! Why add something in the signal chain that does not need to be there?
I have been doing some serious research on a new set of analogue interconnects that came about purely by accident from a chap who sent me some cables to burn in for him on my nordost cable burner, I could not resist listening to them afterwards and was shocked at how good they were, they had audionote RCA's fitted which are silver plated, I was so impressed I have asked him to make me a pair for myself with guess which connectors? Marco should know as I asked him this afternoon?
Like that means anything! :rolleyes:Quote:

I don't know if Neutrik are a good brand of xlr? I've never heard of them before.
oh yes, chopping cables up is well worth it! :steam:Quote:

Neutrik plugs are pretty muchy industry standard and my experiences with balanced cables leads me to believe that they are much less prone to variation than single-ended cables. I'll not be fiddling with my TQ balanced cables.
My ears must be shot as i can't hear any difference in cables let alone connectors.
As Martin says, Neutrik are the industry standard in XLR connectors.Quote:

A blind test of two identical pairs of cables terminated with gold contact Neutrik XLR and Oyaide or Furutech XLR would be interesting to see if anyone hears much of a difference.
Hmm, I do have three pairs of TQ balanced XLRs :eyebrows:
