Yes, I think we compared notes once before, and while I love the Neutrik 
connector generally, that strain relief is junk.  And it still beats 
switchcraft like a white mouthed mule.  Screws and other stuff can't 
wait to fall out of a switchcraft. Neutriks, being drug around on the 
studio floor at the tv station, still manage about a year of 100% 
dependability. I think, since I retired, the production time just for 
newscasts has quadrupled, and that does take its toll on mikes & cables.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
