Neutrik NP2 X-B

Neutrik plugs are the industry standard for good reason. They are designed perfectly, are easy to assemble and solder, the build quality is excellent and the price is not too high as well. The Neutrik strain relief system is the best out there. You never have to worry about accidentally ripping apart your plug if you accidentally stand on your cable.

I don't know if the gold plating actually does anything. I don't think this is worth the extra 50 cents over the regular plug, so I deducted one star.
