Need help picking RCA's


Recommended Posts

Posted

Alright when picking a RCA cable look for:

Connector (Belden/Canare are good examples)

Wire Size (coax hopefully, supports 75ohm)

Other then that it really doesn't matter. (Also there is a reason why SMD cables cost what they do. Just like other high quality RCAs, connectors and wire size matter)

here are some specs of a typical wire that I would say is good quality.

Belden 8241 RG-59 Coax specs:

Number of Coax: 1
RG Type: 59/U
AWG: 23
Stranding: Solid
Conductor Material: BCCS - Bare Copper Covered Steel
Insulation Material: PE - Polyethylene
Outer Shield Material: BC - Bare Copper
Outer Jacket Material: PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride
Plenum (Y/N): N
Plenum Number: BL-88241 and BL-82241
Nom. Characteristic Impedance: 75 Ohms
