Recommend an RCA connector

In this hobby, you live the two irrefutable paradigms:
(1) everything is built to it's pricepoint; and
(2) you get what you pay for.
If you really expect to step down to your indicated new "cheap" price point, and you still expect to meet (forget about exceed IMO) the performance and build quality of the Neutrik Profi, and somehow defy Or ignore these facts.... Good luck to you.

I would respectfully refute irrefutable paradigm no. 2. One reason among many being that I see no reason to assume that the higher materials cost and build quality that presumably (and hopefully) drive product cost will necessarily translate into better sonics, rather than being pointless overkill.

Especially in the case of something like a connector (assuming it is for an analog application), where aside from establishment of good contact (which can certainly be achieved at modest cost) there is not a well-established understanding of why, how, or when differences in materials cost and build quality might affect what is heard.

A lot of people like Switchcraft RCAs as an inexpensive alternative. The 3502 and 3507 come to mind. I have neither used nor heard them. You could do some research to see how others like them.

I do not know your applications for the RCA cables, but personally I have not had good luck with coaxial cables for analog audio applications. You might price Mogami cable and research it as well. There are generally 2 that most use - 2534 and 2549. There are others as well that would work.

The above notwithstanding, I believe that Akg_ca is correct in what he says.

"You get what you pay for...."
Would that that was true!!!

Having gone through several rca plugs in the past little while I found the conmector to contribute significantly to improved system performance

To date...
Purchased two pairs of Stager Silver Solids interconnects with Canare f-10 rca's
- upgraded the rca's to Eichman Silver bullets which made the cables much more revealing spacious and dynamic

- changed the Silver Bullets to KLE Innovations Copper Harmony RCA's and found a significant improvement in dynamics, and image

- changed the Copper Harmony to Silver Harmony (from KLEI also) and again there was a noticeable improvement in dynamics, details and image

However - the other cables in your system must be of a similar quality to reap the rewards - one set of plugs ain't gonna transform your system

Take a look at the KLE Innovations web site for reviews
