Anyone sell short RCA cables?

[maylar 10+ year member]

The shortest RCA cables I'm seeing for sale are 3 ft long, which is a lot of bulky wasted wire when all you need to do is hook up an EQ to an amp. Years ago Radio Shack used to have RCA "patch" cables going down to like 6 inches long. Perfect for hooking up tape decks etc. Anybody know of a cable source that has short ones?

Thanks

i am in on this... i need 2 shorties... i have 3ft hooked up from epicenter to amp and eq to HU

me too... for strapping amps, having a 3 feet cable is obnoxious.

Yea I believe Knu has some... I KNOW I've seen them somewhere, I'm trying to remember where. I've always wondered what the hell they were for, I guess strapping amps makes perfect sense.

I guess the smallest Knu has is a 1/2 meter, so a foot and a half. Knukonceptz product detail for NEW KARMA SS 2 CHANNEL 1/2 METER RCA CABLE

But I know I've seen patch cables somewhere...

just make your own shorties. if you have a soldering iron you can shorten any existing RCA (with a 2-piece head shell) to whatever length you want. takes me about 10 minutes to shorten an RCA pair.

cutting a wire and adding a form of resistance never increases quality of the signal. id much rather have a continous run than a break.

when you put a new end on the wire you are continuous from end to end and have less resistance due to a shorter cable. i wasn't saying to cut in solder at the cut, but to cut and put a new RCA end on (2-piece headshell). the stock cable is just soldered - you are doing the same as the factory cable.

I can also make RCA cables for anyone that needs them in any size. I have a proper soldering station and all that gear so they end up looking quite good. PM me if you want.
