Like most everyone else, I bought this to fit in tight quarters in my vehicle for my mp3 player. After using it for only about a few weeks, it started giving me problems. I have to have it twisted, tucked and rolled at the proper angle for both the left and right channel to work. If not, the left channel disappears. Huge pain when having to constantly adjust it when skipping songs...all while driving. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody.

I needed right angle plugs to make connecting my Zune to my car stereo alot easier and to clean up the look.

The staight plugs stuck out too far and left too much loose cable flopping around.

The 3 foot cable I ordered was just the right length and the angle plugs makes it easier to route and hide the extra cable. The cable and connectors are of excellent build and quality. And the price was cheaper than the straight cable I bought at radio shack.

We've all had hundreds of these at some point in our lives. They work great until they don't. They wear out. It's hard to give a real review until after it breaks. I expect cables like this to last at least a year. The last one I bought (not the same seller) only lasted about 7 months, so don't buy THAT one. Who knows how long this one will last? Even so, the longevity of one cable from the same manufacturer probably doesn't indicate how the next cable will fair. It was cheap.

I bought this because I wanted a short cable with right-angle jacks so it would look nice (relatively) in my Yukon. The right-angle jacks keep the cord from having to bend 90º which should increase the life of the cable considerably. I don't need a long cable for my iPhone which is just going to sit 12" away in a cup holder. Gold plated? Whoop-de-do.

Review UPDATED 3.25.2011!

Well, my cable is now worthless. It already has a short in it. You have to place it just right for the sound to work. I promise I'm not being hard on it. One end stays plugged in to the radio in my Yukon and the wire lays in the tray in front of my cupholders until I plug it in to my iPhone. I don't yank on it ever. I hit play on the iPhone and then it sits in the nearby cupholder. When I'm done, I unplug it by pulling on the jack and not the wire. Wouldn't you think something would last longer than THREE months? I have an old cable that came with a Sony Discman that I bought in 1993 that still works. Why can't cables work as well as that one still does?

I have been looking for a right angle cable to use in my car for a while. This seemed like a good deal so I ordered it. In less than a week it began to short out. It was a low price but you get what you pay for.

I ordered 2 of these cables initially, one for my car and one for my wife's. One of them worked fine, and is still working. The other was unfortunately DOA -it only transmitted the left channel. As soon as I contacted the seller (Valley Enterprises) asking for a replacement, they sent me a new one. We used it gently and it worked well for seven months, until it started shorting out again in January. This was frustrating, so I made a complaint without asking for a refund, since I was well out of the 30-day warranty period. Even so, I was happy to be offered an improved replacement cable!

The guy at Valley Enterprises replied to my complaint with the following: "Portable audio cables are a consumable product. Meaning they don't have a long life span. We have been experimenting with some new cable materials to see if we can get a longer lifespan while still keeping them flexible and slim. We will be introducing a new version next month that includes Kevlar inside the cable to keep the cables from shorting out as that seems to be what causes a short life span."

By February, he had shipped me this new-and-improved cable. It's still a 3' right-angle cable with gold connectors, but it seems a little more stout. I can't really verify if there is Kevlar inside the cable or not, but it seems to be working well so far. I also can't verify if they have totally replaced this old design with the Kevlar design... but the main point of this review is that the company stands behind their products, and I really respect that.
