Good Quality Cable Jan 31, 2005
By Christopher Altermatt The velocity series by Cables-to-Go, aka Impact Acoustics, are nice mid-quality cables. I've done a bit of research on cables and in all double-blind tests, as long as the cables tested are of some mininum level of quality (i.e., one step above "in-the-box" cables), then no one can tell the difference in the audio produced. This cable has gold-plated connections and shielding, so it meets mid-quality requirements. You don't need anything more than cables like this. The only drawbacks are (1) the connection is not as "tight" as higher quality connectors, like those on Monster Cables, i.e. the skirt on the connectors is not a "turbine" design or anything like that; and (2) the color is a violet-blue (this may or may not be a drawback).
The money you would spend on more expensive cables would be better spent on better speakers and/or amplification. After research and testing on my own equipment, I've actually decided to go with Radioshack Gold Series cables on all of my equipment except for my computer soundcard feed to my system. For my computer feed to my amps I use these velocity cables because I needed matching 50-foot cables, and the velocity series has long -run cables for reasonable prices.
Badly susceptible to RFI Feb 18, 2012
By Roy Sprowl I bought two of these because I wanted short high-quality cables from my Rega DAC to my Goldpoint SA1 and then to my power amp. I was replacing some el cheapo cables, one of which was way too long. When I put either of these into the system I started getting a small but definite "ticking" like a pop on a vinyl record about once per second. I traced it down to an RFI (radio frequency interference) problem which these cables failed to shield, but my other cheapies did not. They're utter rubbish, although they do look and feel good.
