    They look like intersting cables.
    Did you read the description....."This very same cable is used to transmit the final fuzing and target parameters to the nuclear bomb warheads on both the B-1B Lancer and the B-52 moments before weapon release."

    I bet they have a great LOW end.... KABOOM!!!

    just got this back explaining the difference in the two models.

    Hi Marvin,


    The KV01 interconnect has the shield ground routed separate from the signal ground. If you have an amplifier that can take advantage of this feature, the noise floor is a little lower than the KV02 model that has the shield ground tied to the signal ground at one end of the cable. If your amplifier has a separate screw-down ground terminal (usually marked for phono) the KV01 is a better choice. If your amp simply has RCA inputs/outputs with no separate ground lug, the KV02 is the way to go.


    Best Regards,
    Jeremy
