I have become a huge fan of Seismic Audio products. This 24-channel snake answered an important need for an amazing price, but is it any good?I have a recording studio with a lot of rack mount equipment, it's a constant battle to get signals to and from the mixer. This patch bay is the perfect mate to the Behringer PX3000 patch bays (which I'm also a big fan of).Now I finally have a reasonably priced way to snake all 24 channels between a pair of patch bays.AUDIO QUALITY: Before passing audio I did some testing on the cable. End to end the impedance measured under 1-ohm, capacitance indicated about 20pf per foot, excellent for line level signals. As with all imported cables the 1/4" TRS plugs each needed a good cleaning with Cramolin prior to use (to remove invisible resistive film from connector surfaces).The center piece of my recording studio control room is a Neve mixer which is driving a pair of Meyer HD-1 monitors, this provides a very accurate system for evaluating analog audio components for noise and distortion. I'm happy to report that these Seismic Audio snakes pass my listening test with flying colors. A lot more of my signals are going to be moving through SA cables very soon.This 24 channel snake is the second SA audio-snake I've bought, my other one is a 16-channel that turned around 16 XLR to a TRS patchbay (also worked great).The plugs are almost too large in diameter, similar in size to larger clutch-type Neutrik connectors, they seem heavy duty and well made. The cable ends are all nicely dressed and labeled with clear heat shrink to protect the nomenclature.FAVORITE FEATURE: They don't degrade the sound and they're priced very effectively, compare to any other brand you can find, nobody can touch these prices, thank you Seismic Audio, I'll be ordering a lot more in the future.

Seismic products are of great value for those of us on a budget. I have no problem with my audio snakes and I really appreciate the fast shipping. It would be nice to be able to custom order them by length and connectors.

The connectors are Neutrik knock-offs but they are good quality. The wires are color-coded and labeled clearly. The insulation around each wire and around the whole snake is very good. I have not taken one apart but I assume the wire/conductors are probably fairly thin gauge and not thicker or doubled up like a more expensive cables/snakes. I can't comment on how they fare over time as I've only had them for a short time. I consider these a step-up from the cheap molded HOSA style snakes.

It's a good snake for the money, but the jacks aren't quite as high-quality as I had hoped — kinda bendy where the sleeve meets the frame — and depending on your console, you may have to cut the sheath back a ways because the cables won't spread out that far.
