looking for RCA cable - just the wire, not the ends.

[req 5,000+ posts]

im looking for bulk wire made for use with RCA cables. im going to make my own at custom lengths with custom ends, and i have not found any place that has the right kind of wire to buy.

i am not interested in weaving my own lengths of wire together and heatshrinking everything. i want a nice quality spool of wire to use.

does anyone know of any place that sells this - im not even sure what its called. i know in the FA-18 all the lines that transmit radio frequencies to the antennas and what not are all coaxial or triaxial cables that cost several thousands of dollars per foot.

i should yank some of that stuff - but id need a bit too much lol. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I actually dont know //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif. U just said u couldnt find any. But if u want more information I suggest ECA or DIY mobile Audio forums, since i know alot of the members do their own RCA wires.

Since you need just a 2 conductor setup in the wire, get some KnuKonceptz KL3 Kable. Or, you can get some Monster Cable 16Ga/12Ga speaker wire from walmart, it has an outer 'tube' that makes it seem like 1 wire.

That would be absolutely retarded...

You want shielded 2 conductor...

Ok, I have no idea what I was talking about anyway. Looked like the guy put turned the 4 conductor wire into a 2 conductor wire, by twisting the wires together... Which would be the same as the KL3 wire, just a 2 conductor wire already.

I don't understand why people give advice like that then...

Lulz.

I get what you were saying. The KL3 would be only good for a single channel RCA cable, which with a 4 conductor wire, you would get a 2 channel RCA cable. Gotcha now. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
