I have been using these Cordial cables in various lengths and plug configurations for multiple years now, and they have never let me down. The Neutrik NP2X and NP2RX plugs are an industry standard for a reason: they have an ingenious strain relief that not only reduces cable breakages at the point of exit out of the plug but also keeps it firmly gripped inside it. The cable itself is soft and flexible, yet is able to survive being accidentaly stepped on. The biggest downside is that the capacity of it is pretty high (130 pF/m according to the Neutrik website), which means that this cable can reduce the high frequencies. However, it is not a problem for me, personally, because I only use short lengths of it. It only becomes noticable when the cable is multiple meters long. To sum up, I would highly recommend this cable to anyone on a tight budget, unless the highest possible retention of high frequencies is crucial.
