It's 5mm vs. 8mm cable.

For the prices... I'd spend the few extra $$ for the "fancy connector" It's not like we're talking 10's of dollars difference. ;)

. As for "audible" differences....... none.

There is a difference. It uses a bigger font to allow bigger 0's and 1's transfer over. ;)

I bought the Fancy connector ones as they look real nice all plugged in in the back :D


its a few extra dollars for my own personal amusement.... figured why not?
