Any boutique audio or A/C cabling – the performance/cost doesn't work for me. Give me Belden and ProCo

Switchcraft female XLR connectors and their look-alikes. They fail at the darndest times. The pin receptors stretch out and become intermittent. Sometimes it can be detected early by shaking the connector and listening for rattling inside. I replace these with Neutrik like a fanatic. Yet they seem to reappear in the rig as mysteriously as socks disappear in a dryer…

Interesting how the manufacturers and distributors in the OP and down the line all have very good marketing techniques and sales campaigns. Without independent research about products, one stands to lose some coin, and become jaded about particular brands of gear. Buyer Beware
