I have had problems with 2 separate pairs of AU24 RCA ICs. Developed noise on one channel that I isolated to one cable -- in 2 differenct pairs. Audience was VERY helpful. I sent cables back to them to be checked, with understanding that ICs might come back a bit shorter. My 1meter ICs came back at .75meter. I don't know if the stiffness has something to do with it. All in all a great cable from a company that stands behind its product.
