What is the general consensus on Gepco cables?

Any thoughts or experiences with Gepco?

I have some Gepco, it seems to work fine. These cables I inherited or ended up with because I bought a bunch of cables and the Gepco's were included. When I make my own cables I use Mogami, Canare, or Connectronics. I don't think the price difference is that big between budget cable and high quality cable when you buy in bulk (200 meter spools).

Thanks man. I will probably get into making my own as I need them individually, but I just won a Gepco snake with Neutrik connectors (the big ones, not the standard) on ebay. I felt good about Gepco after doing a couple of thread searches and going to the company website. I bought some Beldon/Neutrik from American Musical Supply but at $96 for 8 channels, brutal. So I only bought half of what I needed just so I could hook up my HD24 (just got it a few months back...my MSR16 has some issues right now so decided to go with the HD24) to try it out. Running 24 channels now from the 24.8 to the HD24 and back, and the cable happened to be 24 ch. balanced trs@ 9' (same length give or take a foot I was looking for). I've taken some advice from past experience and continuing good advice to invest a little more in better cables. Not the best of the best particular model # I'm sure, but I would like to think more pure than something in the bargain bin.

Gepco/Neutrik should work out just fine, I would imagine.

I just recently won a patch panel with 20 Neutrik D-series XLR connectors and four D-series locking TRS connectors, with spots for 8 more D-series connectors of my choice, along with about 300 feet of Mogami Neglex quad cable already soldered up with black/gold Neutrik XLR ends (about 20 cables in all). 200 bucks for all of that plus two 8 channel 10 foot snakes and a 48 point patchbay. I can't wait to get some Neutrik TRS ends and chop up a couple of those mic cables to wire up the patchbay.
