September 22, 200817 yr Anything besides Blue Jeans LC-1 ICs I should consider for $50 or under a pair?
September 22, 200817 yr 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 22, 200817 yr Author Looks like AudioArtCable has IC-1s on clearance right now too. Had good luck with their IC-3s. Hmmm.
September 22, 200817 yr Signal Cable's Analog Two can be had for $54 at 3' with the standard Neutrik plugs. And their Analog One is $40 for 3'.
September 23, 200817 yr 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.
September 23, 200817 yr 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. They might not want to come out and play.
