I'm replacing all my cables with these cables from knukonceptz.com. The combined total with shipping was $138.

I can't believe how nice the packaging is.

What exactly made you decide to go with these cables?

They have been popular with the Car Audio folks, and additional positive comments from other car audio forums.

It looks like a nice cable, have fun.

Did your purchase decision come from looks or sound of the cable?
Oh...and what are they replacing?

The boxed rca connectors have some kind of locking mechanism on them, that will be my first experience with that kind of connector. The cables at the bottom of the pic have a funky curvy connectors and the wires are twisted. At $6 a piece I'm using them for multi-channel audio.

They seemed like a good bang for buck and most of the few reviews out there were positive. I predict a monster of a sale for my old cables.;)

$138 for all that? Sweet. They look like some serious cables. If you really enjoy them, I might give those IC's a shot.

I have 3 sets of the RCA interconnects pictured at the top, one pair going from my HK to Rotel and one going from my DVD plyr to teh HK.

They are locking terminal plugs with silver coated copper cores..fully shielded....very thick in diameter with very good build quality. As a reference, they are better than AR ProII, Rat Shack interconnects, Monster Ref. 100, and Blue Jeans Belden coax type (in that order in terms of sound quality with Monster being the most expensive and nearly the worst sounding).

The cables can sound a bit harsher and more piercing than AR but I understand that this is a characteristic of silver coated cables....the control bass much better than any of the cables noted.

Beware of hot weather with these....the plastic surrounding the cable sticks to objects touching them. I had a pair sitting on my desk (not in direct sunlight and about 95 degrees F) on a hot day here in California and they got stuck to the desk!! Very strange since these may be used inside a car.

I'll just be using mine in a cool dark cave. Although, when summer comes it would be a fun $6 test to see if I can melt one in the sun. :)

Can you put something in a pic for scale. Those boxed whatevers look HUGE! (What are they off of the website?)

I took the pics, the boxes are probably 1 foot by 1 foot. They don't advertise the boxes on their web site. I was really suprised when I got them.
