September 22, 200817 yr comment_163121 Used Cobalt Cable ICs? I have a pair I like better than my Blue Jeans, but that's only regarding cable flexibility and appearance. I think the Blue Jeans are too inflexible- although I don't have LC-1, but Belden 1694A, which is stiffer, the Cobalt stuff is really easy to work with. Also, I think the connectors w/ their white and red rubber things look cheap and stupid. I've never compared ICs re: sound. Their new price is high, but I got a 1.5m RCA pair for ~$30-40 on Head-fi.

September 23, 200817 yr comment_163402 Blue Jeans is about as close to paying a DIY'er as it gets, therefore if you're happy with the aesthetic you probably can't beat the price. Report
September 23, 200817 yr comment_163414 Cheap?, you want cheap? how about For only $1.75 each when QTY 50+ purchased - PREMIUM 2 RCA Plug/2 RCA Plug M/M 22AWG Cable - 3ft | RCA Audio Cables For only $2.19 each when QTY 50+ purchased - PREMIUM 2 RCA Plug/2 RCA Plug M/M 22AWG Cable - 6ft | RCA Audio Cables Just don't tell the electrons how cheap the cables were.
