Our verdict

A fit for buyers who need an RCA to RCA male-to-male cable for the digital coaxial use a picture describes and who want a length from 1m to 15m. Look elsewhere if you need one agreed conductor label or a stated impedance, and note that the crossed-out prices come with no explanation in the page text or the pictures read for this review. Every spec figure here comes from the store's own page.

Why 3.3/5: Lowered by short page text with most claims in pictures, a crossed-out price comparison the page leaves unexplained, store terms that contradict each other, and no independent test checked for this review.

The SKW BG-01 is an RCA male to male cable, and its store title adds the words Subwoofer Digital Coaxial. The page text lists RCA for both Connector A and Connector B. It is listed from $29.99 for 1m, beside a crossed-out $59, and comes in nine lengths from 1m to 15m. The page text gives Single Crystal Copper as the conductor, a 24K Gold-Plated plug and a 7.0MM outer diameter, and the pictures add an OCC CONDUCTOR(Hi-Fi) label and a line about connecting Digital Coaxial Devices.

Options and pricing

One color, BG01-Black-gold, in nine lengths: 1m $29.99, 1.5m $34.99, 2m $39.99, 3m $49.99, 5m $59.99, 8M $69.99, 10m $79.99, 12M $89.99 and 15m $99.99, all orderable when read. The page shows a crossed-out price of $59 next to the $29.99 for 1m, and each other length has its own crossed-out price, with $199 beside the 15m option; neither the page text nor the pictures read for this review say what the crossed-out prices compare against.

How it compares

The SKW BG04 2RCA to 2 RCA Male to Male Cable also has RCA at both ends by its name and starts from $25.99, against from $29.99 here; each is the cheapest option on its own page, so the lengths are not matched. The BG-01's store title adds Digital Coaxial. The SKW AUX 3.5mm Jack Cable Male To Male starts from $20.99 with 3.5mm ends, for the headphone, smartphone and similar uses its name lists.

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.

What we liked

  • RCA at both ends, male to male, per the page text and the store title
  • A picture marks one plug OUT PUT and the other IN PUT, each with an arrow (spelled so)
  • A picture says it is suitable for connecting Digital Coaxial Devices with SPDIF / COAXIAL
  • Nine lengths with listed prices, from 1m to 15m
  • The page text lists a 24K Gold-Plated plug and a 7.0MM outer diameter; a picture gives OD:7mm

Worth noting

  • The conductor is labeled Single Crystal Copper in the page text and OCC CONDUCTOR(Hi-Fi) in a picture, with no purity figure in either
  • The page text gives two Type lines, Coaxial Cables and AUX, and a Color line reading Black Gun while the option is named BG01-Black-gold
  • Crossed-out prices appear on every option, and neither the page text nor the pictures read for this review explain them
  • Neither the page text nor the pictures read for this review give impedance, plating thickness or weight

Questions before you buy

What is the BG-01 meant to connect?

A picture reads 'Suitable for connecting Digital Coaxial Devices with SPDIF / COAXIAL' and shows icons for DVD, TV, Sound Card, Amplifier, CD, Decoder, Active Speaker, Monitor Speaker and Subwoofer. The page text lists applications such as DVD Player, Speaker, Amplifier, Multimedia, Television and Projector.

Which end is which?

A picture marks the plug with a down arrow OUT PUT and the plug with an up arrow IN PUT (spelled so), and both plug shells are printed SKW in red with the matching arrow.

What conductor, plug and shielding labels are given?

The page text gives Conductor: Single Crystal Copper, Plug: 24K Gold-Plated, Shielding: Braid and Shielded: Nylon Braiding. The pictures add OCC CONDUCTOR(Hi-Fi) (picture 02) and, in picture 01, Thickened PVC material and Nylon Braided Protection. Neither the page text nor the pictures read for this review give a purity figure.

Where does HiFiGO ship from, and how long does it take?

From its warehouse in China, usually 1-3 business days after the order. The shipping policy gives 1-2 weeks to the US by Priority (6-10 days by Premium), both with duties and taxes prepaid, 2-3 weeks to Canada, 1-2 weeks to the UK and 10-15 days to Australia. Express couriers take 3-7 days, but the buyer pays any duties.

Can I send it back if I change my mind?

HiFiGO gives 7 days to report an item that arrives dead, damaged or wrong. Its policy also describes 30-day returns, but requests 7 to 30 days after delivery lose 30% of the MSRP plus shipping both ways and duties, and the FAQ on the same page says no refund or exchange after 7 days. Ask [email protected] before you open the box.

What warranty does HiFiGO give on cables?

What we couldn’t verify

  • The page text labels the conductor 'Single Crystal Copper' and a picture labels it 'OCC CONDUCTOR(Hi-Fi)'; neither gives a purity figure, and how the two labels relate is not stated in the page text or the pictures read for this review.
  • The page text gives both 'Type: Coaxial Cables' and 'Type: AUX', and 'Color: Black Gun' while the option is named BG01-Black-gold.
  • The page shows a crossed-out $59 beside $29.99 for 1m and higher crossed-out prices beside longer lengths, with no explanation in the page text or the pictures read for this review; 'Nice Appearance and Wear-resistant' (picture 01) is a claim.
  • HiFiGO's policy pages contradict each other: 30-day returns with a 30% restocking fee in one place, no refund or exchange after 7 days in the FAQ.
  • HiFiGO's pages name no company, street address or phone number; the only contact given is [email protected].
  • HiFiGO's warranty page excludes cables from returns for hygiene reasons, while its FAQ says a cable can come back in its original condition.
