Yep, it's RCA cable
Christian from LITTLETON, CO on 7/27/2020
The AudioQuest Evergreen RCA Interconnect Cable is fine. It looks pretty, and well made. The connections fit very securely, and it does the job. It carries analog signal from point A to point B. I used it to connect from my DAC/PreAmp to my Power Amplifier. I did not notice any particular improvement in sound quality from the patch cable I was using previously. There might be some difference in signal retention. However, if there was any, it was so subtle I couldn't tell. The AudioQuest Evergreen is nice. Is it worth this price or more? I don't know.
Pros: It's pretty. It comes in many different lengths. Flexible and seemingly well made. Ends fit quite securely.
Cons: Value? Not sure....

Crutchfield customer from Wilmington, NC on 7/26/2020
I bought these for connecting my preamp to my amplifier. I wasn't ready to spend the money for XLR cables so went for a good quality RCA cable. I got what I wanted with these. My only heads up is that the split in the cables is pretty short - it wasn't an issue for me on my Marantz MM8077 amplifier or the preout from my Yamaha receiver but it's worth checking before buying. I'm very happy with the cables especially for their price.
Pros: Nice quality cable at reasonable price. Look great!
Cons: Cable split may be a little short depending on your equipment jacks separation.

Nice cables with one drawback
Crutchfield customer from Renton, WA on 6/21/2020
These are high quality cables with nice connectors. My only reservation is that they don't give you enough length in the "Y" portion of the cable. If you have a component where the L & R are separated by more than 3 inches (as is the case with many phono preamps), you may not be able to stretch the L & R connectors far enough apart to make your connections. Once the L & R wires are merged at the "Y", they become one cable (i.e. - you can't split them apart any further)
Pros: Nice cable. Nice connectors. Quiet.
Cons: See review - not enough length from the "Y" point to the ends of the cable.

Crutchfield customer from Knoxville, TN on 6/18/2020
I've used AudioQuest cables for several years to connect most of my source components (DAC, Tuner) to my pre-amplifier. Recently I updated my power amp and pre-amp (to a refurbished vintage McIntosh MC2105 and C24). I choose to rearrange my equipment and needed longer interconnects. AudioQuest Evergreen cables have been my go-to for some time now. They are high quality, and reasonably priced. I purchased two of these in the 2 meter length to connect to my pre (the C24) and to connect a second amp (an MC250 that runs speakers in another room) and could not be more pleased.
Pros: Price, Quality, Handsome construction
Cons: none

Crutchfield customer from Seattle, WA on 5/5/2020
The cables look great! I'm having a hard time justifying the price, but I'm hopeful that they're doing my system justice compared to the drug store RCA cables I was using before. I haven't been able to A/B the two, but thee Evergreen's seem to be well built and I love the wrap and color of these.

Pretty cable; but I think I received a dud.
Ric from Gardendale, AL on 3/27/2020
I think I received a defective rca cable. I ordered these to connect to a turntable to a receiver's phono input. Immediately after plugging in the rca cable and turning on the power I noticed a noticeably louder humming noise. I reseated the cable; same problem. I turned off the turntable and still had the humming noise. I unplugged the power going to the turntable, still heard humming. Everytime I touch the cable the noise either gets louder or a little lower; but it never completely went away. I rerouted the cable to avoid other cables and the same issue exits. I plugged back in the cheap cable that came with the turntable and heard almost utter silence. Swapped the AudioQest cable back in the humming reappeared. I think the shielding or the ground on this cable is bad. Also of note - There's not a lot of room between the split in the rca ends before they combine into one cable. Make sure the rca connectors you're plugging into are in close proximity of each other. The cable did have a nice substantial feel to it; and it looked pretty! I am re-ordering the GoldenGate series to see if they'll work. And don't let anyone tell you that cables do not make a difference in sound. My wife and I compared the sound between some Monobridge rca's and the original cables that came with the turntable. The monobridge had increased volume, bass....but the original cables had better clarity with vocals. This difference has me going down the rabbit hole of finding the perfect cable!
Pros: The cables look pretty!
Cons: Increased buzz/humming sound after installing this cable.

Intermittent connection
Stephen from GRANDVILLE, MI on 1/5/2020
Purchased with Marantz power amp to connect from receiver pre-out. Kept loosing left channel intermittently. I always thought the connection was vibrating loose on RCA jack on either the receiver or amp or maybe one of the jacks on either the Receiver or Amp was the problem. It would go away just moving my entertainment center to get a look at the connections. I would reseat both ends and a day or a month later the left channel would cut out again. When I switched the cable ends, 'red lead to right channel vs left channel', the problem moved to the other channel. Tested the cable with an ohm meter and found the White lead on one end of the cable would go 'open' just flexing it with one finger. This cable was never under any stress or strain when connected to my equipment. I have been using an OEM supplied cable for almost 6 months with no more loss of either channel.
Pros: Looks very well constructed on the outside.
Cons: Intermittent connection on the inside.

Great interconnects at a nice price
Anthony from BROOKLYN, NY 11203 on 12/15/2019
There are MORE arguments in the audiophile community when it comes to speaker cable and interconnects than any other product in the industry. Some say there is NO difference in sound from the most expensive cables on the market compared to lamp cord. Well, now the the truth. If you are using low end to mid fi gear, just use the cheapest interconnects and lamp cord for your speakers. I TOO don't hear ANY difference on low priced geat. BUT, now we move up to expensive, audiophile components. I have VERY high end components in my main audio system and audio cables make a BIG difference. If you have audiophile level components, get yourself some good interconnects and speaker cables. You do NOT have to to crazy spending money, but you do NOT want the cheap RCA interconnect or lamp wire for your speakers. The AudioQuest Evergreen gives you the best bang for the buck. Most people will NEVER hear the difference between these and the HIGHEST priced cables on the market. I love them. They sound great and I'm using them with VERY expensive high end gear.
Pros: If you have high end audiophile equipment, you WILL hear the positive difference that these cables make. You do NOT need these if you have low priced low quality gear. You won't hear the difference.
Cons: none

Very nice sound quality. Ran these to replace the high level input I was running on my mrv-m1200. The sound difference is amazing. Helps a lot having the flat signal that the high level wasn't providing. Glad I made the switch. These wires are awesome for the price.

First higher end cables, and I am pleased
Crutchfield customer from Round Hill, VA on 4/24/2019
I replaced the 'in the box' cables that came with the Pro Ject Turntable connecting to a NAD 338 Amp. YES you can hear a difference with theses cables. I am using the pre-amp in the NAD and the quality is better with these cables. First cables I bought that were directional? Meaning that there are little arrows to show you the direction that the current should flow (TT to amp). Thank You. To the Crutchfield support who did NOT recommend spend more for this application, great support.
Pros: Music does sound better
Cons: It is had to 'trust' that these are worth the cost. They are.

Solidly Constructed RCA Cable
James from Gibsonia, PA on 12/27/2018
In preparation of taking receipt of some Schiit Audio gear, I wanted to ensure that the interconnects being used were of sufficient quality and contained appropriate shielding to minimize the potential for interference for my application. The .6 meter variant of the AudioQuest Evergreen cable fit the bill on all counts, and was the appropriate length for pairing a DAC with a Headphone Amp. The build quality of this cable is fantastic while providing a better value than competing brands that one may find elsewhere. Each of the RCA ends contains a directional arrow that identifies which end should be plugged into the source and which end should be plugged into the target device. If you're using extremely high end gear such as the McIntosh product that is sold by Crutchfield, you may be able to discern a difference between the Audioquest Evergreen line and the more premium products in Audioquest's (and their competitors) portfolios. I've been extremely pleased with the overall performance of this cable and look forward to using it for many years to come. It represents a fairly solid value for a well constructed, adequately flexibility, and well built interconnect that doesn't break the bank!
Pros: Length, Price, Construction
Cons: None

RCA Evergreen RCA cables
Roy from Sugar Land, TX on 12/18/2018
A world better than the $20 RCA cables from Amazon. Made my subwoofer disappeared and all the bass to come out of my front speakers. Used two of these one for my subwoofer and one for my sound card on my computer and I think that the distortion was vastly reduced by using the two of the same Outlet. The results for quiet amazing I thought. How do you use the audioquest male by two female adapters do you connect these cables to my computer. The connection will have no problems!

Worth the money
Edward from Trenton, NJ on 10/26/2018
It took me a while to pull the trigger on these cables because of conflicting reviews from audiophiles whose cable purchases equal my months rent. Since I have limited knowledge of the cable industry I decided to pick up the phone & call Crutchfield and explain my needs. I talked to a young man at Crutchfield who , after I told him what I was looking for, recommended these cables. They didn't quite live up to what I thought they would do but it did open my eyes on the use of these cables. The cable was connecting my CD player to my receiver and it did clarify the signal between the units compared to the standard RCA cables but also dropped the volume. Not to be deterred, I wanted to hear the difference in my A/V receiver/cable box connection with these cables and bam! That is where they belonged, almost as if they made it that way. Needless to say, I bought another pair within days to supplement my other A/V system in another room and enjoy the movie theater experience. I'm sure there are better cables at 3x the price but if you want to hear the difference a cable can make, start here. You will not be disappointed. I gave these three stars from an audio standpoint , but will give them a 4 for your home audio/video system.
Pros: Clarity
Cons: Volume

Great advice and direction from the online advisor made it an easy decision and process. Delivery was as said, the price was fair. The product is good quality and fits the posts firmly. Not sure if the sound quality was that noticeable on my system. But, it has cut way down to almost no times of static and the large variances in volumes. I think I will order more to replace the cheaper cables I have had a long time. I would recommend Crutchfield and this product.
Pros: good quality and fits the post firmly and helps to clean and neaten up the cable maze.
Cons: not a con, just an idea. If they came in different colors it would be easier to identify each one of the components

Nice single-wire concept.
Wayne from Saint Augustine, FL on 2/4/2018
I bought these because you can't go wrong with anything from Crutchfield, I've had good experience with AudioQuest, and most importantly, my wife hates wires. The single wire construction makes them easier to conceal. The lack of "spread" is not an issue and makes for a nice, tidy connection. I'll probably order another one to replace a double wire connection on another component. I trust they will hold up over time. Recommend.
Pros: Nice tidy, connection; nice fit
Cons: None

No noticeable improvement at all
Tom from Appleton, WI on 1/19/2018
Average at best, if that. Absolutely no discernible improvement over the generic RCA cables the CD player came with. In that sense it is a complete waste of money, I mostly wanted something that is built better to last longer until I get the cables that I really want - which are not Audioquest.

Cons: Absolutely no discernible improvement over the generic RCA cables the CD player came with. In that sense it is a complete waste of money, I mostly wanted something that is built better to last longer until I get the cables that I really want - which are not Audioquest.

Raymond from Alexandria, VA on 12/10/2017
Nicely built cable, a lot thinner than I expected, and pretty flexible. Purchased to replace some DIY work I did with replacing a vintage turntable cable with patch cable. Im currently using the Evergreen cable to run from my preamp to a set of powered speakers. Slight improvement on audio quality but Im still working on improving my signal chain. Note: If you have left and right rca terminals more than 3 inches away from each other, these are not your cable. My preamp terminals are 3 inches apart and these cables barely fit. Otherwise they are great.
Pros: -Nicely built - thin, but still sound great - flexible
Cons: - the "y" connection may limit your use. Be sure your RCA connections are close.

Less Gain Needed.
Chip from Edwards, CO on 11/1/2017
These AudioQuest Evergreen cables are great wires. I'm using them to replace wires in a Dual 1219 turntable I've had since 1969. After I put the AudioQuest wire in place, I noticed that I'm using 40% less gain. Nice strong signal down a 100' line. Thanks for offering such a superior product. I'll be buying more equipment from you. Chip
Pros: Nice strong signal, tough construction which should last longer than I'll be alive. Whoever ends up with my stereo should get many years use from them.
Cons: AudioQuest wires are a bit expense, but are well worth it.

Low hum
Jeff from San Francisco, CA on 9/9/2017
Distortion. That should not happen with a cable that supposedly is of the highest quality. I get better performance from my cheap cable. With the amount of distortion/feedback/low hum that I get from this cable it's almost unusable. Maybe I got a bad cable and was unlucky. Either way, I am very disappointed with this purchase.

Great quality for excellent sound
Dee from Philadelphia, PA on 7/31/2017
I purchased a new Onyko CD player and wanted to be certain it would be compatible with an older model Onyko receiver. Aaron who assisted me with my purchase suggested the cables to be certain I would get a first quality sound. He was right. I am amazed at the quality. Highly recommend! Dee

Glenn from Boca Raton, FL on 6/14/2017
I was hoping that these cables would be a little beefier. As others have stated that they are thin, I didn't realize how thin until I seen them. They sound fine as I am using them to connect my emerald physics B.O.M. to my pre-amp through the tape monitor loop and I already have a maze of wires back there as it is ,so these 2' cables work great
Pros: They come in short lengths like 2' and thats all I need. Also like that the left and right channel is single cable
Cons: They are hard to grip when you have to remove them

AudioQuest Evergreen Cables - Best Ever
Lamar from Henrico, VA on 5/1/2017
Bought three sets now to connect a Music Hall turntable to a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 ADC, then from there, to my iMac27 then to a a Schiit DAC and Schiit headphone amplifier out to Audio Engine 5+ and an 8" AudEng SUB. Learning Pure Music and Pure Vinyl to get some of my late Fathers' vinyl into the digital realm so I can listen at night and on the road and not have to flip it every 30 minutes!!! I also have two of their USB cables to help make things hook up
Pros: Sweet cables at a very fair price. Compliments from the wife on how nice the room/cabling looks (or lack of cabling looks) !!!!!!
Cons: Zero - none- Zero

Very Well Built
John R. from Gaffney, SC on 4/16/2017
Well built, nice looking sound fine, But these cables are solid and can be used on tape decks, CD plyers and other things that the connections are very close together. I got them to connect a crossover for my sub-woofer and the connections are apx. 3" apart, NO GO. The ends are at a fixed separation and can not be split. The down thing is the green color has red and a silvery white print, very hard to see in poor light that is found behind a system.
Pros: Well built, sound good, look good also
Cons: Hard to see print, ends at a fixed distance

Well built cable!
Scott from Omaha, NE on 4/5/2017
This is a very well built cable! I used it to connect my Marantz SR6011 AVR to my Marantz MM7025 2 channel amp to run my front Klipsch R-28F's so I could run a 7.2.4 Atmos setup. The cable packaging is great. The cable itself is of superior build quality. 1 thing that is not mention on the product description is that the cable is directional. Listening to old music is like I've heard it for the 1st time. Bottom line is the cable is worth the few extra bucks when you're putting together a nice home theater/music room!
Pros: Great quality, great packaging, excellent signal tranfer
Cons: Little pricy

Quality Cables
Crutchfield customer from North Wilkesboro, NC on 3/26/2017
Quality made cables. There was an improvement in clarity over regular off the rack cables. How much improvement you'll see depends on the equipment you're using.
Pros: Quality construction, gold plated connectors.
Cons: If the RCA jacks on your equipment are far apart, these cables won't work for you. The left and right channel wires only have 2 inches between the end of the RCA plug and the block that fastens the wires together into one single cable.

Nothing special
Stephen from San Clemente, CA on 3/19/2017
Quality constructed cable but barely separates at the ends. If your LR RCA's are more than 2" apart, look elsewhere. No audioquest RCA will fit (or if it does, it will be pulling on the jacks.) If you're set on AQ brand cables and these will not fit, buy two sub woofer cables. For sound quality, they sound good. But admittedly, I don't notice a difference between these and my generic cables. Any differences that I can hear are so small that I can convince myself whether or not I really notice them. For reference, I'm using an Oppo 203 to play a standard CD through an Integra DRX-3 to Emotiva A300 amp to Focal 706's.

nice rca connectors that made a diffference
Everett from Saint Agatha Maine on 1/31/2017
The best way to describe the difference is to say these cables cleared up what I would call muddiness ,also the most important thing is that the cables are not made of large insulation which can put too much force on the rca connectors which can lead to bad solder joints. They are made from small flexible material. They made a difference I could hear with the new speakers I ordered.
Pros: Better Sound
Cons: none

Noticeable sound quality improvement with minimal investment!
BOPO from Marietta, GA on 8/9/2016
I'm a cable snob, I'll admit it. Most of my system (and recording studio) is cabled in top shelf Mogami and Canare wire. So this time around, when installing a new turntable/pre-amp I thought I'd try something different. I purchased these AudioQuest Evergreens to replace some older Monster 250's when I upgraded to a U-Turn Audio Turntable and their matching Pluto Pre-amp. The difference in sound quality was immediately apparent! I've got a really revealing system with Bryston power amps and Quested monitors. On a pure analog source (like a turntable) you really need some wire that's not going to get in the way or cause any degradation. Upgrading to the Evergreens opened up the sound. Smooth low end, silky high end. It's almost like getting closer to the music. I found myself comparing several prints of the same recording and actually being able to quantify the differences. Well done AudioQuest - I'm a fan!
Pros: Excellent build quality, very affordable, noticable sound quality improvement!
Cons: They are green.:)

Flexible cable and clean sound.
Vick from Santa Fe, N.M. on 6/6/2016
These cables are flexible and easy to maneuver from one piece of equipment and connect to another. The sound is clean and natural. They provide a noticeable improvement over the standard red and white cables that are included with many pieces of equipment. The manufacturer offers them in various lengths to suit ones' needs.
Pros: Flexible and easy to connect. Natural sound.
Cons: An additional cost compared to the cheap red and white cables often included with stereo components.

Entry level to clean audio
Audiobahn808 from Hawaii on 10/19/2015
This cable has always served me well. It was my first entry level cable many years ago and I still find myself getting it. Great sounding cable at an affordable price and should one be looking to upgrade from this their better off getting silver conductors because any other solid copper cable like this will make absolutely no difference being that this cable is of high quality copper. I believe the stranded vs solid conductors and the copper vs silver to make the most difference in audiophile cables.
Pros: Solid built quality, sound great, solid conductor.
Cons: None

Connectors too slick
DaveM from Georgia on 3/29/2015
I'll never buy another pair of these! The geniuses who decided to make the connectors (which connect very tightly) slick and smooth are idiots! You can't hardly get a grip on these to pull them out! They should have been made of a rubbery type material or they could have made them with a ridge to grab onto, any number of ways other than a hard, slick, smooth surface that offers no grip whatsoever!

Just the right size & performance!
Anthony from Minneapolis, MN on 2/6/2014
Needed a well insulated 5 meter pair of interconnects for a special installation and the Audioquest Evergreen was just the ticket. Also that both L & R channels blend into one jacket shortly after the RCA terminations was a plus too as it kept the wiring to a minimum and provided for a super clean installation. As for the sound? It imposes no will of its own lives up to Audioquest's mantra of "doing no harm". Just pure signal transference. Bravo Audioquest on making a well designed product at the exact length I needed and at a very manageable price.
Pros: Well built, single jacket design that performs great at a good price!
Cons: None that I can think of.

Audioquest Evergreen Purchase
Tee from Pennsylvania on 6/5/2013
I have the cable between my CD Player (Yamaha CDS-300) and my amplifier (NAD 356BEE). While I do not buy into the idea that cables can make your music sound better, it did provide a faster access to my 16GB USB Thumb Drive I insert in the USB port of the CD Player. The thumb drive has around 3K songs and anytime you turn the CD player on or insert the thumb drive, it has to read all the song titles, etc first before it plays. The amount of time (saved) is probably only a minute or two but it was a noticeable difference. Bottom line, this cable transfers data faster. It is worthy to note, however, that the Rocketfish cable was longer. In any case, I would advise anyone to spend the extra money for a cable such as this vs. Rocketfish. No brainer.
Pros: Quicker access to the data on my USB drive. Obviously superior quality vs. Rocketfish; worth the extra money.
Cons:

jon from Hurley, NY on 5/7/2013
I gave this five stars because I don't know how else to rate it. It certainly connects well and everything sounds good, but I also upgraded my CD player and never tried connecting the old, generic cable. The instructions specify that it should be connected according to in and out arrows on the connectors (out from the CD player and in to the amp). I did that, of course, and there are no problems.
Pros: Seems to be fine but I really haven't compared it to any other cable.
Cons: None that I can think of.

Significant Improvement over no-name cable
Larry from Atlanta, GA on 2/7/2013
I used this cable to connect Musical Fidelity V-DAC II to V-CAN II. The RCA plugs fit both sides quite well - not too firm (but quite strong) and not too lose. This was quite a difference from a supposedly high-grade, quite expensive Monster cable I used once, where fit was so tight that I thought I would break my components. Trying to adjust that cable I broke off a few pieces from RCA plug so I just threw the cable away. For the record, my upgrade included not only this cable but also AudioQuest USB cable and Musical Fidelity V-PSU II so the effect was cumulative. Before the upgrade, I was already quite happy with the sound from the V-DAC II/V-CAN II but knowing a good reputation of AudioQuest cables, I decided to upgrade the cable as well, considering the price was very reasonable and if nothing else I would be sure I was not loosing any performance. After installing AudioQuest RCA/USB cables and V-PSU II I turned on my system and tried to listen to Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" through Beyerdynamics DT990/600 Ohm headphones. In short, I was shocked to the point I did not recognize my system! Sound became so sharp, detailed, and crystal clear with very strong and accurate bass that I felt like I was listening to completely different DAC and headphone amplifier! Few times I heard sound passages, loud and clear, that I never heard before - on recording that I listened to like 1000+ times. Great product, well worth the price!
Pros: Excellent quality, just right fit when connecting RCA plugs. Significant improvement in frequency response, upper mids to highs. More overall clarity. Much better lows but I would probably attribute that to V-PSU II upgrade in my case.

Better than Monster 400i
Scott from MN on 1/23/2013
I connected the 2' Evergreen between an older 24bit/96KHz CD/DVD player and integrated amp going to Polk A3 speakers. They were a huge step up from the free red/white cables. The highs were clearer and sounds were separate and distinct. I have to assume difference was from attenuation from capacitance in the free cables. The L/R channel separation seems to have improved too but this could be just because the highs are clearer. I also purchased a Monster 400i cable ($31 on sale) for comparison and although it had much better low and mid throughput, I was disappointed in the highs with the 400i so I have to say that the Evergreen worked better with my setup. I compensated with a 4dB boost in bass and loudness for movies and used CD direct + line straight for most music.
Pros: Very clear and distinct highs.
Cons: The low/mid throughput of the Monster 400i was better, possibly because of a larger conductor with lower impedance in my system. I would like a cable that has the high frequency response of the Evergreen balanced with the low/mid of the 400i so I could use the CD direct setting for everything.

Excellent prodcut

I opted for what I thought were pricey cables but I am so glad I did. The difference in the sound is unbelievable!. I highly recommend. Plus the delivery was so fast! Worth every penny to have such great, clean audio.

A Logical Alternative to Manufacturer-Supplied Cables
Kirigiri from Palo Alto, CA on 9/21/2012
A/B comparisons between this Evergreen cable and the RCA cables that manufacturers provide with their audio products reveals that spending roughly $30 on the Evergreen cable is worth the money. A/B comparisons between this Evergreen cable and my friend's $300 total audiophile cable revealed no distinguishable characteristics, by either my friend or me. Following that A/B comparison, my friend asked me the brand of the Evergreen cable, so he could buy one for himself.

Good Cables
Brad C. from Yukon, Ok. on 8/22/2012
I just replaced all of my 25 year old RCA cables with these Evergreens. Old cables were Nakamichi "top of line at one time". Yes I could tell a differance in sound quality.
Pros: Recommend highly....
Cons: NONE
