The rhodium plating on these is what sold me—crimped them onto my interconnect cable and immediately noticed the connection feels rock solid, with no microphonic buzz. The end shielding that blocks RF signals seems to actually work, since my DAC's clock noise quieted down noticeably after the swap.

Finally got around to swapping these into my signal path, and the end shielding really cleaned up a faint digital hash I didn't even realize was there. The rhodium contacts feel super solid when they mate.

I was skeptical about the rhodium contacts making a difference, but the clarity in the midrange is noticeably cleaner than my old connectors. The brass and silver plating feels solid too, definitely built to last.
