There is no best. But if you want to think there is by spending an *** load of dough on them.. look into the Acoustic Research Master series.

Good luck with your quest.

Acoustic Research is a good brand, but can be pricey. I use Stinger in my car:

some $20 stinger, streetwires, lightning audio, rockford, kunkonceptz etc. will work fine.

They'll work for whatever you want them too. Look into the Stinger Expert Series.

RCAs are RCAs. The quality can vary from horrid to spectacular but there is NO rca that will work in the home and NOT in the car or vice versa.

The other day someone linked a set of Knuconceptz interconnects that were looking very nice and were only $30. You may want to check those out.

You're in Vancouver right? To get a set quickly, just head down to FutureShop...they will have a selection of Stinger wire. You can get a good set for 29.99.

alright for those who say rca's are all the same thats total BS, ive been doing car audio for years and know for a fact thats not true, my question was from your experiences what you think the best interconnects are........ and the 29 buck ones from future shop will be the stinger blue wires which i currently run and have only a dual shield.....

Easy tiger.....if you are referring to what I posted then let me assure you that all I meant was you can use HOME rca's in the car and CAR rca's in home. And if you're referring to what Johnecon2001 said then let me also assure you that all he meant was that there is NO BEST rca. Not saying there aren't bad, good, great and spectacular rca's available but to call one the BEST would be like saying a certain sub is the BEST sub.

Just keep in mind that spending a ton of money on a set of rca's may or may not make that big of a difference. Higher priced rca's may make only a subtle if any difference in sound. What I'm trying to say is don't expect too much from a new pair of interconnects when you already have a decent set running now.

Just to let you know.....I run Monster Cable twisted pair that I got for free back in 96 when I sent in an old set that went bad and since Monster didn't make them anymore they sent me a brand new 5meter 2 channel pair which retailed for over $100 back then. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif They were the first year of the XLN line. I've been using them ever since.

then go to the store and buy the most expensive set of rca's because they will obviously be better.
