Monster cable - little orange things

Post by Ross »

So I recently bought some monster cables. they cam with a bag containing two little orange elastic eye-shaped dealies.

What are those for?

You can switch 'em with the little blue dealies on the jack, so if you buy a bunch of monster cables, they'll all look slightly different. Saves the effort of wrapping them with different colored tape, I guess.

Yep. If you have a lot of monster cables, it helps to have them all color-coded, especially when your input is a great distance from your output. For example, I always do right=red/left=blue, to make sure I don't mix them up during setup.

I use those to keep my wires separated from the anti-gravitational device.
