One of the OB/Gyns here has one his son got with his car and gave to him as he bangs on the guitar a little.  He told me about it but for some reason does not bring it to the hospital when he does C-Sections at night so I have yet to see it.   :mrgreen:]]></content:encoded>

First Act cable = $8.88 Cheap low end Monster Cable = $24.99.  Had to give it a try.  It's a third the price.
Wouldn't surprise me if they're the same item out of the same factory with a different name.
