Any real difference in RCA cables quality for sub?


Right now I am using an inexpensive RCA cable I had lying around for the sub connection to the AVR. Is there any real benefit to using a more higher quality (ie more expensive)?

If your system is quiet you have have good start. The signal needs to get to the consumer without picking up NOISE.

Hook up a sub and get a hiss from the tweeters. That noise..

I’ve also seen RCAs pass a signal BUT one end to the other it would lose a strong enough signal to make the sub respond correctly. Turn it up and it would work better. Correctly, I would question. Usually with copper as a clad OVER aluminum or simular conductive alloys. That type of IC is real common in Auto audio gear.

A good copper IC with good terminal ends. I usually solder BASS stuff and use gold clad over the terminals.. Just works great. Copper/gold for bass.. Peas and Carrots.. :-)

I use a weave works perfect.. 3 meters is about 30.00 usd with locking ends.. Copper/silver clad PTFE. or OCC PTFE. Cooking a bunch right now..
