I just use the nicest ones CPC's own brand Pro Power do, The Blue ones. They are fine and so cheap when they get lost they are disposable.

I hate to say this, but yeah, they are "fine" if you want get some "guitar cable" (ie Canford, Kelsey HSS) and break out the RCA, the Neutrik Pro_fi ones rock, but do result in a cable that cost so much you gotta budget for an armed guard if you wanna take it home at the end of the gig. Also be aware, without exemption any bit of kit with RCAs on is gonna be a total piece of crap (yep, think Pioneer here) so having a less than brutal plug is handy, the "posh" RCAs tend to wreck RCA sockets when yanked and the cheap one tend to break, so sacraficing £5 worth of these babies ( https://cpc.farnell.com/pro-signal/psg00796/hq-lead-2x-phono-p-p-5m/dp/AV14259?st=5m%20phono ) that don't pull the socket off the DJM are a better plan. Also, anyone can here the difference (even EAW users) between a £1 and £5 lead, but the difference between £5 and £5000 is little more tenuous. As Jace says, buy 5 get eh price break and hide 2 as spares!!!! |

These are the ones I use and they're very good, definitely better than the cheap £1.50 ones probably because they're shielded which helps. The ones i've ever used that are better are Van Damme but they're expensive.

Cheapest ones from cpc, just buy in bulk. Hardly worth making.

The plans I have need these to be left in place, so no removing and really need shielding.
