L-shaped interconnect?

The depth of my furniture to contain a receiver (or other component) is limited.  Does anyone know of any "L" shaped RCA interconnects or adapters that might reduce the space needed behind the component for cabling?  Even slim RCA plugs would probably help (banana plugs are a big problem).

Your local radio shack probably has something very similar in stock...

In my opinion, banana plugs are a waste of money.  For one thing, there is absolutely no way they can IMPROVE the signal, since you are increasing the number of contact surfaces, yet people think they do.  Bare wire is the best, if not as convenient.  So, I would dump the banana plugs.  There are cables with angle plugs as well as angle adapters.  I think Radio Shack has the adapters.  In my case, I just took a jig saw and cut a rectangular opening (actually, increased the size of the opening that was there) so the cables could go out past the back of the cabinet.


They flutter behind you, your possible pasts.

ah, Radio Shack - I should have checked there first.  
The wife is against cutting addition holes in the back of the cabinet, or that seems like the logical choice to me too.
Thanks for the replies.
