SKW BG-08 6.35mm Jack Cable Review

Listed from $24.99, the SKW BG-08 is a 6.35mm jack to 6.35mm jack cable offered in black at 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 3m, 5m and 10m. The store title adds '6N' and '( Pair)'; the pictures read for this review mention neither, and two of them show a single cable. Apart from the 6.35mm plug size, they give one figure, an outer diameter written OD:7mm, and the page text gives no specification list.

Specifications

Options and pricing

One color is listed, BLACK, in six lengths: 1m $24.99, 1.5m $29.99, 2m $34.99, 3m $39.66, 5m $59.99 and 10m $79.99, each orderable when the page was read. The store title says '( Pair)', but the options do not say whether a price covers one cable or two, and two pictures show a single cable.

How it compares

The SKW AUX 3.5mm Jack Cable Male To Male starts from $20.99 and has 3.5mm plugs by its name, while the BG-08 starts from $24.99 with 6.35mm jack ends. The SKW BG04 2RCA to 2 RCA Male to Male Cable starts from $25.99 and has RCA ends by its name. A use diagram in the BG-08's pictures links the cable to an amplifier, speaker, guitar and mixing console. The choice comes down to the plug: 6.35mm here, 3.5mm on the AUX cable and RCA on the BG04.

Shipping, returns and warranty

HiFiGO sells from hifigo.com and says every order leaves its warehouse in China, usually 1-3 business days after it is placed, and says its delivery times are estimates, not promises. Its shipping policy gives the United States 1-2 weeks (about 10 days on average) by Priority and 6-10 days by Premium, both with duties and taxes prepaid by the store; Canada 2-3 weeks; the United Kingdom 1-2 weeks; and Australia 10-15 days. Express couriers (DHL, UPS, FedEx) take 3-7 days, but then the buyer pays any duties and taxes. No shipping page names New Zealand, PO boxes are not accepted, and the free-shipping thresholds differ between the store's own pages, so check the cart. One of its two shipping pages adds that a lost parcel on an order above $50 gets only a 50% refund. A US buyer reported a $40 tariff charge in August 2025, after which HiFiGO said it had added a customs notice at checkout.

Read the return terms before you order. The homepage advertises 7-day returns. Both of HiFiGO's policy pages offer a 7-day dead-on-arrival cover (a replacement or a full refund, with the return postage refunded) and also describe 30-day returns, but a request made 7 to 30 days after delivery loses 30% of the MSRP as a restocking fee (10% more if the packaging is incomplete), plus shipping both ways and duties, and the FAQ on the same pages says there is no refund or exchange once 7 days have passed. One version recommends reselling an opened product locally. Custom IEMs and custom cables cannot be returned, no return address is published, and buyers describe sending items back to China.

Cables and adapters get three months of warranty from the order date, against one year for DACs, amps and IEMs; a note on the same page also excludes cables from returns for hygiene reasons, while the FAQ says a cable can come back in its original condition. HiFiGO decides between repair and replacement and the buyer pays the shipping. Claims go to [email protected], the only contact the store lists: its pages name no company, street address or phone.

On Trustpilot, HiFiGO had 4.6 out of 5 from 378 reviews when we checked on 2026-10-28 (91% five-star, 5% one-star), and it had replied to about 75% of negative reviews; Trustpilot notes the store has not invited customers to review recently. The one-star reviews mostly concern the short return window and the deductions on returns, items listed in stock that turned out back-ordered, slow email support and a tariff charge on a US delivery in 2025. HiFiGO says its products are genuine and come in the brands' retail packaging; it does not claim to be an authorized dealer.
