      I give this cable an overall rating of 7, because to me that is satisfactory, and this cable is satisfactory. Nothing more, nothing less.
      This cable does what it should, and is an adequate price, compared to other overpriced cables.
      Seems to be good & sturdy. I don't plan on stepping on it, winding it tight, pulling it by the cord, or anything else that would also destroy any other overpriced cable, so therefore, there isn't much for there to go wrong. The only thing I noticed is that the plug seemed a little tight when first plugging into my amp output jack, but after plugging and unplugging a few times, it seemed to be better.
      Good price, what any speaker cable should cost. Personally, I feel that gold plating, or any other frill is a waste of money that will not result in any noticeable sound difference.

      I purchased these based solely on price. I have been pleasantly impressed with the quality of other "house" brands of cables so I decided to buy these speaker cables.
      The 16ga cable is decent enough, very flexible and sturdy feeling. The 1/4" male ends are the weak link. First, they are horribly cheap and bend easily. Worst of all, the length of the tip extending from the connector body was too short to be secured into my speaker cabinet or back of my amp. The connector body is oversized and beefy looking, but upon closer examination has a very cheap feel and easily comes unscrewed.
      I ended up getting frustrated and cut off the cable ends with the plan of putting on my own male ends.
      Dont waste your money - you pay for what you get is the lesson here.

              I have bought these cables in the past without an issue but I recently bought 2 of the 6 foot size cables for my cabinets. Upon arrival I tried to hook them up but the cable end is too short. It is literally 1/8" too short and will not go far enough into the female jack to snap into place. Manufacturing 101 is at least to make the item to standard specs! Simply testing these cables before shipping them from China would have prevented this issue!

                    The shaft on the jacks are about an eighth of an inch shorter than other jacks I own. In several of my speakers, the jacks don't stay in. Disappointing. I'm going to cut off the jacks and replace them. Cables are good, jacks bad. I guess in china they measure differently. Not buying anymore of these.

                    I know these are 16 gauge but I'm not convinced that the connectors need to be so big. I probably don't need 16 gauge to drive 300 watts at 8 ohms either. And then one showed up damaged. The worse part is this damage did not occur during shipping! It was clearly damaged at the factory or right before it was packed. So, I paid for 2 and got one functioning.

                          These are fine for the price, but the actual TS jacks on them are not great. If I compare there agaist my normal instrument cables, they are just slightly shorts (ie 1-2mm) so they do not lock into the jack of either my orange cabinet or my amp securly. Since I just use them for practice it is not a problem, but they could come disconnected if they see any movement.
