What is this interconnect?

Doubtful anybody will know, but I have a pair of interconnects that I demo'd at a stereo store a number of years ago and bought. There is no name, logo, or other corporate (or individual) markings, but they are atypical.

First, the RCA connector sticks out of a wood sheath. I am not talking about the metal cylinder which makes contact with the female rca connector, but right behind it - I don't know what type of wood it is, but looks quite nice. There is a large arrow on one end of the cable, in black and lettered imperfectly. Second the cable is semi-rigid. If you bend it in a L shape, it will stay that way. The cable itself is shielded by a grey textile material, it is densely braided and feels a bit like nylon or webbing.

They are strange interconnects, and I assume - made by someone in their garage, but if anyone knows anything about a cable like this.. do respond!

Much thanks for reading this far..

We have had several pairs of these thru the store and I am continually amazed at just how musical they are compared to how inexpensively they trade. I've seen both a grey and tan sheathing and the wooden connectors with and without the arrows. I was once told they were Forsell's, but have never confirmed that. Bottom line is, they sound very, very good!

Veridian is correct they are Lindsey-Geyer. I finally remembered.

Wow.. thanks for all of your help! So, the general consensus on the cables is - quite good. Probably no need to go searching for another cable in the $150 (used) range to replace them, then.. yes?
