OK so today well being my lazy self browsing the web i found this.. http://xscargo.com/product.php?dept=Electronics%20Accessor&cat=Audio%20/%20Video &index=36%26item%3D2782763 i thought to myself PERFECT becuz i needed a component cable for my dvd player so i gould get the best possible picture out of it with my lcd and, some extra speaker wire would be in use by chrismas (hopfuly) i want a new amp, so i;m asking do you think it was worth my $35 or so, i havent set it up yet it weights about 5 pounds seemed like a deal to me.. |

That's not a bad price. The pins are just a matter of convenience for connecting to the terminals. But the best connection is still bare wire direct to the terminals. |

You can cut them off if you prefer. It is not going to affect anything. |

They work well, they are just overpriced so don't ever pay retail for them. I can get them for less than 50% off but I prefer blue jeans cable. |
