are these cables Y2K compliant? because the last ones I bought weren't and I can't play any of my pre 2000AD records.

Hi Bill ... yes well .. you need the right batteries, 6 in the chain .. 3 energizer going up, 3 Duracell going down .. if that's not Y2K compliance .. what is?

Hi Jeannina! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My sincere apologies for missing your question previously! We have been plagued recently with people attempting to counterfeit our cables, due to our very high rating on these. So first of all, did you buy them directly from us or was it a second hand seller on Amazon? If it was second hand, that is likely the reason for the cable failure, they are not ours. Secondly, if you'll send a message to us at the following link along with your Order ID #, we'll of course replace them if they WERE purchased directly from us at The Friendly Swede. Anything else, please let me know here at this link:

The ones we bought were bought used a few years ago and all cables required to play were included. The PS2 system is no longer made and good quality used units are harder to find now. Good luck!

Well i guess they discontinue the original SL49, so they rereleased it under SL49c. They sound great and still work good til this day. Just make sure you buy them from either the amazon or av house seller, ok. Hope i helped =)

Not sure if you have an answer, I also have that model and have used these cables for a few months now with no negative issues.

I'm gonna guess no. They aren't of the build quality that the compliant devices usually are. I've had mine since May of 2013, both of them now switch modes if you so much as move them around. I would look at McMaster Carr or Grainger for something that'll be compliant.

Hi, Tyler. I am not sure about the newer records. Ours are mostly from the 60s and they do quite well. I would think the newer ones would be OK depending on what the recommendations from the manufacturer say. If you know someone who has this entertainment system, you might try it first before you decide to purchase one for yourself. Probably not much help for you but I haven't even seen any new records yet. I may try it if I can find a new record somewhere that isn't too expensive.

From what I have been able to find out about these cables, they are 1.4. They are supposed to support 4k and 3D. I am using 2 of them and have had no problems with Blue Ray.Hope this helps

Yes these cables are backwards compatible. It will depend on what you what you are connecting them to take full advantage of their potential.

I can't attest to these but I do have a set of 12 year old X220 speakers that have had a fair bit of use (even hooked up to a TV) and they still sound like they did when I pulled them out of the box.

RETURN IT!! This was gift for my 80 yr old father, and we had no shipping damage, no issues playing LP's or 45's or connecting to my dad's main system. With LP's there is slit in the back of the cabinet so the LP's could spin, but I will go over to Dad's this weekend and take a look.

Yes, I have old cassette tapes from the early 70's onward and it played them without any issue.

You need XLR female to dual XLR male Y cable. Try Hosa YXM 121. Heads up though, It probably won't work either.

The cables can be bought aftermarket, not a special Jack. Alternately, you may contact the company.

I have this system and am able to play 24-bit/192KHz flac files through the USB interface just fine (running on linux). I suppose it's possible the software or hardware is downgrading them first but I would have expected no sound at all if the unit really didn't support it.
