After some challenging years during the COVID epidemic, we established a favorable working relationship with a new assembly shop in Illinois in 2023 and we resumed production of our stock cable assemblies. Another professional fabrication ship is assisting with special orders and warranty repairs. Most of the stock assemblies previously sold by the Gotham USA companies and The Sound Parcel are now available again. We do accept custom orders for lengths, colors and connector choices not listed but there is typically a 4 week lead time for these.
We have been offering our US-made GAC cable assemblies since 2009 but after 2014 it was challenging for some customers to distinguish our products from Gotham cable assemblies, fabricated in Asia, which were flooding the Internet marketplaces.

All our cable assemblies embody an "Honest Abe" approach to cabling. No hype, buzzwords, misleading claims and smoke & mirrors.
