Inside Philips SWA6311 coaxial audio cable

Found out by accident that the RCA plug can be unscrewed to reveal the inside.


They really care a lot about reliability (pronounced "no short circuit") in commercial products. Minimal amount of exposure, a layer of insulation around the center connector, possibly heatshrink.

The fact that it can be unscrewed plus the quality of the packaging make me suspect it to be a China clone job. But no biggie, it is still professionally done, much better than overpriced and off-spec cables made in Singapore.
