This weekend I came across a couple that had a shipping container just packed with the badass high end Rockford Fosgate cables! I’m talking 1000s of different RF cables. They are old models from back in like 2000 but all still brand new in the package nothing at all wrong with them. So I picked up 3 sets to go from my 360.3 to my amps. Right now I have a rf T800.4 on the 4 door speakers and a massive audio n4 running my single 18 out back. Would I be worth the time to pull the basic cheap rca cables out of truck and run the new monster set of rf rca cables, these things sr massive. The are a single cable almost half inch around and at the ends have a big a Rockford Fosgate sign and then the 2 rca ends come out of it. Nice looking cables and all gold plated. So I can take the time to swap them out and just go pick up 3 more sets of short ones to go from the 360.3 to the amps. They sell the cables for probably the same price as you would pay for the cheapy chugger basic cables so price is no issue. I seen the same set still going for 50 each on eBay. They also have the white wolf RCA cables that I was thinking about getting because they’re only a foot and a half long versus these other nine so what are you update is it worth the time to pull the seeds back out of the driver side front and rear and deck out of the truck to run these new cables? Let me know. I’ve already had issues with Feedback noise that drove me absolutely insane so I ended up making a full new wiring harness for the truck change the RV is back around and it still makes the damn noise when you flip the key onto the run position but only if for a couple of short seconds and then once you start the truck it goes away. I don’t understand it and I don’t know maybe it’s the shitty RCA’s that I have in there I don’t know. They do not run anywhere close to the power ground or she is going to need the center consul straight back in the power cables along the door jam it is a zero gauge. So maybe these new ones will get rid of that noise because that’s one of the main things they talk about on the box is the way they have this crazy amount of twisted loops per inc And they have a third cable in the center of them that is just a solid core. Anyways enough rambling I’ll shut up now so throw me a comment And let me know what you think. I’ve been out of the car audio since I was in high school back in 01 Just getting going back on it one of my friends got me hooked again with these damn 18 inch woofers LOL<br /> <br /> </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> <br /> </li> </ul></blockquote><p></p>
