I tend to stay away from good value / cheap cables of any kind.
I actually think that "good value" is very different from "cheap" (if by cheap one means "doesn't work well"). I usually see getting good value means getting what is needed for the least amount of money. And if the cable doesn't work or isn't reliable, then obviously it isn't a good value automatically.
GLS mic cables have always been a good example of "value cables" in that I haven't had one go bad in 12 years and for $10/25ft cable is a great value.
Anywho, just a clarification in what the original question was getting at!
