I often use my PA to play music from my iPod when practising or when we are having a party of sorts at our bandshack, and these 3,5mm cables needed always seem to break suddenly and fast. I specially bought this one, being more expansive than the previous cables combined, to prevent this from happening, but no. It was the quickest to date to stop working properly. Furiously unsatified, disappointed, gutted and whatever else adjectives I could come up with. Definately avoiding this brand for now on.
