best RCA's

[MikeR. 10+ year member]

Are Boss interconnects any good? I want to order some stereo equipment from SonicElectronix and they either have Boss or Monster cables (Expensive). I may order knu cables separately.....???

No experience with the Boss rca's but generally their all the same. I needed rca's with incredible noise rejection so I got the Monsters. You should be fine, just choose whichever will look best in your setup.

Custom FTW //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

This is the first version I did, but the coax cable was not the right kind (insulator was too stiff). The new wire I got was only available in black so I'll be putting blue heat shrink around it to match the lights on the amp.

Other than these, I've used Stinger Pro RCA's and never had any problems, they work great and are inexpensive. I also would recommend Kicker RCA's.

I have knukonceptz karma cables and my buddy has the klarity rca's that came with his amp kit. both are very quality and are pretty beefy with good shielding. the krystal rca's look great too.

knukonceptz ftw

How about no functioning shielding in those cables...the shields arent grounded, at least in my cables(karma and krystal) they arent //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I've used everything from the cheapo RCA's that come with budget install kits to Stinger, Monster, Acoustic Research, and a few others. All have worked just fine...

I don't think so. Here's what a microphone cable looks like

I mean, if one of those wires is positive and the other is negative, then it can work with RCA ends that require soldering, but I would assume the different gauge wire would not be a good idea.

Then again, that copper braiding may be for the negative and then you'll have to use one of the two wires for the positive. What you can do for sure is use coaxial cable.

IMO, cheap RCA's don't provide the shielding and quality of good RCA's. The purpose of the RCA is transfer signal from one source to another...surely the cleaner signal would provide the better sound.

Dont laugh, but Monster Cable XLN Pro uses a patented winding technique developed by David Navone that is supposed to give a 120db of noise rejection (or 2x normal cables).
You can find them all over ebay for just a little more money than Stinger or Knu.

thats what im runnin and they work great. and they clamp on so **** tight they're hard to pull off

they're expensive here but i got em cheaper
