The last set I swapped onto my Dual were a gold plated set from a thrift. Measured 78pf/meter, not bad for no name. I bought 4 sets and measured every one, this one tested really well, the others were all around 350.I used to pick up any cables that looked decent that I ran across cheap. The lowest capacitance I ever measured was a 3' pair I bought new 40 yrs ago at radio shack, 50pF. The most was an unbranded 6' pair, 850pF.
