3.5mm mini plug cable

I'd like to connect my Rotel multi-channel amp to my Rotel AVR using the 12V trigger feature so it turns on and off with the receiver. I need to purchase a 3.5mm mini plug cable. Does it matter what the quality is? Would an inexpensive Radio Shack 3' length cable do the trick or can this actually impact sound quality?

Yes, there are differences between mini cables.
I have used cheap Radioshack cables, and when I switched
to at least a cheap Dynex from BestBuy, it was better.
Better yet, a Sony mini cable that I recently tried was far better.

You are right. I used them for connecting portable
CD players and such, where sound quality is noticable.
