Should answer "are cheap cables any good?" for you!
S0 -
In my humble opinion the cheap cables are fine for a fixed install, but their build quality leaves a bit to desire ands they can be a bit fragile when used in a system where you keep plugging and unplugging them.
The makers have to keep costs down somewhere, and the obvious saveing is in the quality of the plugs.At times any combination of my spelling, grammar or punctuation may be incorrect. Please do not pick me up for this as, after all, it is only an internet forum.0 -
Or it could be the quality of the sockets that are constantly being plugged/unplugged.
TV manufacturers use cheap components too.0
