I agree that BNC (or lemo) connectors are better. Those RCA pieces parts are a really cheap design: the ground connection is broken before the signal is.

After having a similar problem undoing my Outlaw interconnects, I just make certain that I do not tighten them down too tight.

When I attempt to undo a connection, I just look at the connector for a while and make certain I understand what is acually taking place inside the Outlaw interconnect when I attempt to turn the locking collar a certain direction. If I have not had too many cocktails, I almost always get it right. If I get it wrong, I assume I have not had enough cocktails yet and give up on the interconnect for a while.
