Pros:
<p>Well built. Have had no issues with threads as some others I have read about. These connectors come in 3 parts to a package, the plug itself, an insulator (plastic) tube to cover the wires and the connector body to thread onto the plug. The cable retainer that is on the plug is also decent and holds the cable in place quite well.</p>
Cons:
<p>Unfortunately, these plugs short very easily. I&#39;m no amateur at soldering up cables but these seem to have plastic inserts that must be melting when applying solder to attach the conductors.</p>
Comments:
<p>I was disappointed considering this brand is a branch of Neutrik. I also purchased the 5 pin male DIN connectors of the REAN brand at the same time to make up midi cables and these connectors have been absolutely great, no issues whatsoever. If you want to avoid getting frustrated then don&#39;t purchase these NYS224 plugs, go for a better one...I will from now on. Luckily, I have a cable tester and managed to find the bad connections and fix them before I used them on my equipment.</p>
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
