Question Aux Cable

Are all Aux Cables junk? I cant find one that works decent. Seems they work for a day or two then I always have to mess with the wire so it comes in clear. What brand is good? Where did you get it? The help on this would be great!! Thanks

If you mean a cable between the AUX & an Ipod, I got mine at Radio Shack. No complaints.
