II bought a few of these cables awhile ago. They sat unused
because the 1/4 connectors on them were oxidized and
unrealiable. I decided to make 1/4 to RCA adaptors out of them
and when I removed the cable insulation I was shocked to find
only _30 GAUGE_ wire in there. No shielding whatsoever either.
