I've had more expensive cables than this from apparently better makers, which will remain unnamed, all of which have deteriorated much faster than this bad boy.
I tend to leave my equipment plugged in (synths, guitars, monitors etc...) it may be unhealthy but what can i say i'm a lazy producer. Leaving it all plugged in means at least once or twice a day i'm rolling over these cables with my chair, stepping on them and even laying equipment over them. This cable has not yet had a scratch where others have seamlessly stopped working or become unreliable.
Pros:
- Cheap
- Well built
- Takes damage like a boss
Cons:
- Aesthetics could use some work
- The fact that it's ends are made of plastic tends to scare me.
