I use this cable to my laptop or my phone or MP3 player to connect to my little stereo. Before that I had a normal cable from the electronics shop in our village in use that I have lost. Better processing of the Oehlbach cable worlds. It is unlike other cables in this price / quality class not so thick and stiff that it attracts smaller devices such as an iPod Nano from the table. All in all, I do not regret buying this but slightly more expensive cable is not in the least and therefore find that the price-performance ratio.
