1/8 vs. 3.5mm

2009-02-13 by sascha victoria

This may be a dumb question but is there a difference between 1/8 and 3.5mm jacks?

I have some patch cords that came with my Cwejman SK1MKII which are totally awesome. I just ordered some of these and well, they're quite different and not so awesome.

On Richard Lainhart's site he recommends these. They're not cheap but nothing good ever is.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Does anyone know of any amazing source of great patch cords?
