I use monoprice for many cables. But their knockoff iPhone earbuds of a few years ago were disasters[1] and their iPhone charger cables haven't lasted well. On the other hand, I've been getting gorgeous, well made XLR cables from them for a great price, and I've never had a problem with CAT 5/6 cables or HDMI cables[2] from them. Maybe we can say that low price tolerates more variability. EOM [1] They dropped those earbuds pretty quickly. I see they again sell an iPhone earbud, maybe it is better. For $2.36 each I'll probably add three to my next order just to see. [2] Whenever I need a common cable, I generally buy 3 to 6 of them on the theory that my friends and family will have problems that need solving with such a cable. Then I can give them a $3 solution instead of them going to BestBuy and dropping $30.
