the cable is working very well, I am very satisfied. Why only 4 stars? The shield is very thin, it does not bother me, but who is afraid that other cables can interfere with the signal (as is the case for example in microphones), should rather buy a better shielded cable. I can only stress once more: for me it's perfect, I see nothing to "interference" and do not see why you should choose a thicker cable.
