  Connectors?  Whatever's at the end of the ~20-30 cables that I have 
lying around gathering dust from disuse...

  There are only four RCA cables in use at my house:  Two from 
turntables to a mixer (no choice there, I'm afraid), one from mixer 
to sound board, and finally... one from my VCR to my TV :)

  It's an "audio interconnect standard," sure.

  But it's not a "PRO audio interconnect standard."  It's a standard 
for consumer audio only.  And very low-end "pro" audio such as DJ 
equipment.

  Anyway, there's another reason I don't use RCA cables -- None of my 
equipment has RCA jacks.  What pro equipment do you have that 
actually has an RCA jack, other than the HardSID people were talking 
about?
