The only real difference i've found between "really" cheap cables and decent quality ones is that the cheap ones fail more often (i.e. solder joints, loose connectors, sheathing splits over time, etc.).

Stephane, when got my EP500 about three years ago, I of course wanted a good cable to connect it. I got a 12' MonoPrice cable for about $4 at that time(now less than $3). It does this very simple connecting job just fine and there's no good reason to pay a penny more.

Thanks John, glad to hear you have been using this cable for 3 years without any issues at all. I just can't figure how they can sell a 25' cable $3.70 and make a profit.. unbelievable ! Ah well, if the product is good which it seems to be, so be it.. more money in our pockets !

My sub cable came from Blue Jeans Cable. I really like how flexible it is... It lies on the floor nicely. My speaker came from monorpice... it is not as flexible but works great.

Yeah, but don't ya hate it when you pay more for shipping than you do for the product. That's the one thing I hate about monoprice. The products are so damned inexpensive that the cost of shipping actually hurts. Sheesh! ;\)

It's why I've never bought anything from Parts Express.
