I just rcvd some 0.5m PSCs. There were no instructions, to start with - makes me mad.
Let me ask this simple question. Does unscrewing the barrel, loosen the grip of the plug. if that is so, then should this be the operating procedure:
1. To insert the cable, unscrew the silver part. insert the plug into the RCA socket on your equipmnent.
2. screw the silver barrel on, to tighten the connection.

I for one is going to try this on my old VCR, to make sure that I have the hang of this before I go and ruin my new sony DVD player.
