    I have a retro setup with an old CRT tv. I have multiple A/V inputs running into a splitter. Wanted this to finish it off. The connection is very loose, and combined with its thickness and weight often slips out of my setup, often making it more of a nuisance and wishing I bought a different pair. That said, yes, they will function with no apparent issues.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    In 2025 I would’ve never thought I’d buy these cables again. Great value, only complaint is how chunky the cords are. But very high quality

    Needed to connect my old DVD player to a new TV where HDMI was not an option. Wanted to play old broadway shows and concerts for my mother-in-law using gifted DVDs and old DVD player for which I could not find the interface cables. Happy that Best Buy carried legacy cables to interface with inexpensive new TV.

    Solid little RCA cables, the right length for what I needed, and they fit. Always a surprise actually finding these in store, with how few things still use these connections.

    Bonus! There were two in the pack. I just needed one and didn't realize I had purchased a set of two. I also like the long length, which allows my family more freedom to decide where to place the game console.
