Which end is which?


Just pick up a used Transparent high performance digital 75ohm cable from 2003

One end is marked red. Are these directional and if so which side does the red plug into.

The red end wih an arrow indicates that it's a gozinta. As in it gozinta the downstream equipment. The other end is the gozouta, where the volts gozouta the upstream device.

Whether it matters or not is subject of hot debate between the earnestly misguided and the quacking hucksters on one side, and the physical realists on the other. Cables can matter, just usually not for the reasons and quasi-theories promulgated, and not as much as claimed.
