Funny thing, this one just happens to be sitting on my desk, 3 inches from my keyboard.

That's where they would break with any moderate use, I think the constant tension on the material for the clamp didn't help.

I had hundreds of these old style Neutriks in the ancient Hill/Headwater Audio system that I used to be the caretaker of. They all broke at the strain relief and needed to be replaced.
