Jack Leads, which to choose?

[alstocko]

I've been all over the place trying them all, but which do the concensus recommend?
This should probably become a sticky eventually too...

Many recommend fellow Basschatter OBBM's cables: [url="http://www.rock-wire.uk.com/"]http://www.rock-wire.uk.com/[/url]

However, I got some recently from this eBay seller and they are very good also, but Van Damme cable instead of Klotz (I don't know if this is good or bad): [url="http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/ultimate_pro_audio/?_trksid=p4340.l2559"]http://myworld.ebay....sid=p4340.l2559[/url]

The silent jacks are great too, you can unplug from your bass end without making your amp explode.

I've been on basschat for a reasonable amount of time, just never looked in these corners

Only kidding... OBBM is the cable that gets 99% of recommendations, because they are very good, reliable, reasonably priced and he's one of us!

I have the full set.

I've just bought more OBBM cables - I've never had cables last so long in such good condition.

OBBM

I was chatting with him yesterday, and was trying to describe how the sound from his leads tightens everything up, and he said one of his other customers said that switching between their old lead to one of his was like the difference between playing with old strings, then putting new ones on. And that`s exactly it - better definition on the lows, tighter mids and highs. They really do make that much of a difference.

Amazing quality hard-wearing products, at prices that are the same as the run-of-the-mill leads in music shops. Do a search for OBBMs feedback on here - plenty of us rate these cables very well indeed.

[LiamPodmore]

I use AudioSpares at the moment, but as soon as the next payday hits i'm planning on ordering some OBBM cables, because although it would be about £25 per cable, the quality is clearly there.

I like the Planet waves as they make great cables at a fair price

[Adee]

I second Planet Waves, good quality and a no quibble LIFETIME Guarantee ! If you have a problem at any time you send it back and they send you a brand new one. You cant get any fairer than that

[Dandelion]

Next pay day I`m ordeing one!!

I'm tempted to get some OBBM, but I don't think I like those neutrik connectors I'm fussy. Is there an industry standard cable?
[/quote]

Neutrik connectors are pretty much the "industry standard" for musical instruments. What is it you don't like about them?

Perhaps Bode is an old dog and doesn't like Neutrics.


Badum-tish.

My sentiments exactly; the flashers have stopped working on our 'tour bus'. Damn van cabling..!
