Auxiliary cables, if you're looking for one, you already know what it is and what it does. They're all the same, right? Not entirely. I go through cables fairly quickly as I tend to roam around on my desk depending on what task is at hand. I hate bluetooth so tend to connect with cables if wireless isn't an option. This little beastie connects my laptop to a fairly hefty set of speakers that live around in various corners on and under my desk. Now, the last few cables I had lasted a few months, thin little rubber things that split at the mount, bend without any provocation and crack without effort. So, browsing around Amazon I found this one. Braided cord, metal bindings at the cable root and gold connectors. Ticks three of the four boxes. So, as the price is pretty damn good too I bought a set.The difference is noticeable the second it comes out of the packet. The ends have some weight to them so already say "can't break me sucker..." they have a very nice reflective finish and the gold connector sets off the effect attractively. True test of course is plugging the thing in. Now, I'm not a music purist (obviously, or I wouldn't be using my laptop for music) but I do like a "listenable" quality when I'm butt dancing in my chair. The difference in quality between the previous connector and this one was obvious even to my barbaric low class ears. Clearer, cleaner, crisper... Just about perfect to be honest. Well, it was to me anyway. I already have a good pair of headphones so have no need to test them there, but if the quality I'm getting through the speakers is anything to go by, they'll be a huge improvement to phones too.The braided cable is decently rigid, so won't bend and crease without a fight, and that's pretty important when you're a nomad on your own desk. It's soft enough to bend around corners and fiddle into tight areas, but doesn't give you that "I'm going to crack/break" feeling that comes with the more common rubber ones.Silly thing about the whole business is I use gold connectors for everything else, just never occurred to me to do the same with the aux cable. Silly me.Lesson learned, money well spent. Quality product.What more can you ask for.

Cable appears very robust and of good quality. Jack-plug construction is very neat and narrow. Thus no problem putting plugs into a tablet with a thick protective cover, which is not always possible with other cables with a wider casing around the jack-plug to cable construction..

After buying (and returning) a few cables that seemed compatible but don't fit correctly I ordered these cables. They work brilliantly and fit perfectly on both mine and wife's Sony WH-1000xm3 headphones. Note - the 1000xm3 headphones have a recessed socket (like other sony headphones) so require a longer audio plug or narrow stepped/tappered barrel to fit properly; these cables have a 2mm narrowing at the barrel ends - which also helps with some audio player cases. Found old pair of MDR-ZX770BN and MDR-100ABN and these have the same recessed socket but the ZX770BN do not connect correctly and sound is distant. The 100ABN do work with good sound but move the cable slightly and the left speaker drops. I suspect that other people may experience different results dependant on headphone build tolerances so whilst I will use these myself I would not recommend them for Sony headphones without trying them out first. I have found Sony compatible cables but the cost is 2 -4 times as much so getting a headphone extension audio jack adapter (and this cable) is more viable e.g ASIN: B07J2B9NQC. That said all in all seems to be a very good quality cable.Edit - I correct my original findings - when changing to the other end of the cable (its not possible to know which is which) found these did not provide adequate connection to my 1000xm3 but were fine on the wife's. So really needs a slim adapter to work properly. So cannot recommend these for Sony headphones at all.

Audio Cable, TechRise 2-Pack (2.5 M and 1.5 M) Nylon Braided Premium Auxiliary Aux Audio Cable Cord for Beats Headphones, iPods, iPhones, iPads, Home / Car Stereos and MoreI am very impressed with the quality of these cables, for the price paid they are terrific value for money. To be honest I feel the quality of these cables is equally as good as cables costing much more.The cables are supplied in a strong plastic zip bag which is a handy place to store them when not in use, rather than keeping them in a cupboard or box where they may become tangled & damaged or mixed up with other cables.They are wrapped & held together with a nice Velcro strap which can be used to tidy up any excess length of cable whilst in use, or stored tidily when not in use. Much better than the normal plastic twist wire that is supplied by other manufacturers. You often see Velcro straps on quality products & these are quality.The jack plugs are solid with a chromed metal body & gold plated jack which is all important for making a good contact when used. This should prevent any crackles or pops in your sound which you often get with inferior chrome plated jack plugs. The cable is made of a nice soft braid which is both strong & attractive. The BIG plus of the soft braid is that the cable will lay perfectly straight when in use as they don't develop a memory of having been coiled up - how often have you used a cable that has kinks & loops in it where it has been coiled up & will just not lay how you want it? These don't do that at all, they lay exactly how you want them to. The weak link on many cables is the connection between the cable & the jack plug, often this can pull out & damage the solder joint between cable & jack plug. These cables I am pleased to say have a secondary plastic ring around the rear of the jack plug which helps keep the cable tight in the plug so if you insert & unplug by holding the jack plug body & not the cable they will last a very long time. The plastic ring will also prevent movement close to the jack plug which is a weakness on many cables where that movement eventually breaks the internal fibres of the cable due to stress.I have used these in my PC speakers, also I have a guitar amplifier connected to a P.A System using these cables & the sound comes through crystal clear, there is no interference whatsoever, no hum, crackles hiss or pops, the sound is crisp & clear, even if you wiggle the cable the sound is unaffected. Also the cable is running close to an electric extension, there is no interference from the socket so the screening on the cables is good.I am a part time musician so quality cables are important to me. I am impressed with these cables, I use a lot of cables so value for money is very important too! I shall indeed be looking for more products by this manufacturer.Highly recommended product, it will be difficult to top these especially for the price!
