Hello - Is your system on a ship?

Those are not any specific brand of cable that I recognize, but I would guess that they're a DIY design consisting of a pair of twisted coaxial cables. Such a design would likely be terminated with the + and - signals each going down the center conductor of one coax cable with the two cable braids connected together to the ground terminal of the XLR connectors.

While an AES/EBU digital cable should be designed to match the intended 110 ohm impedance, this implementation will not due to a lack of precision in such a hand twisted design. The spacing of conductors and dielectric would have to be made with a much higher level of precision than can be achieved by hand twisting two cables. I'm not saying that it can't sound good in a specific application, but it will not be operating as intended without the precise 110 ohm impedance loading to result in lowest possible jitter and optimized timing of the digital signal.

Retail price was 100 USD as previous owner told me.

Sergio, beautiful amps and cords. It would be great if you could provide a pic of your current system and list the gear.
