Ninja Retractable XLR cables??? Anyone used them?

[jrod81]

hey guys
I found a few reviews but not that many, but the idea is fantastic. Just curious if anyone has used them and are pleased with the purchase?

The few people I know who have tried retractable cables over the years have said nothing but bad things about them.
Prone to kinking and overall untrustworthy.

Coiled cables are great for certain situations (boom to mixer, etc)
other than that I'd stick with regular straight.

All of us old-time musicians remember coiled cables for guitars and headphones. They wore out very quickly and everyone went to straight cables.
