I need 3 pairs of good rcas. i want some really nice ones though. i looked at monster cables top pair and stingers, and theyre nice, but a lil too much $$$. Im looking to get 3 pairs for no more than $75. Whats the best for that price? TIA

Not sure if I would go that cheap, but you do not need to spend $75 on a pair of RCA's (if that is a combined price then nevermind.) Anything more than ~$35 for a pair of RCA's is rediculous, you will not notice any audible difference between each set in most cases.

that is combined. so no more than $25/pair. but i figure if im buying three at once, i might be able to get em cheaper, so it could be some that are like 28-30/pair. i just want some good ones that keep noise out

what noise, ive used some old *** ones they were fiven to me for my first setup, then lightning audio for a audio shop, some RCAs that came with a 4awg kit from cmt trading on ebay, and a pair from wal-mart. they all did the same thing for me, none of them sounded any different.

take your pick

the rca's that i have liked are stinger and tsunami. they have never let me down. fosgates looked kind of cool, but they were shit. other than the stinger ones i have in my truck, everything else is symbilink, much better than rca's.

well ive had a dif experience. ive used mostly RF (many different versions), lightning audio, and some cheap ebay ones. My RF matrix pair was the best. i have them in now, but i accidently pulled em too hard and now theyre fvcked. i had RF SPL ones that run $40/pair at BB. all 3 pair i had were messed up. I got some cheap RFs in now, and i here noise. The lightning audio were ok for the price. And the cheap ebay ones sucked *******

interesting...so does it really work? and what did they say about it doubleing the signal strength? cause i got 8V preouts...

did you test your RCAs with a DMM and it say 8v?

not yet. but im gonna assume theyre at least **** close, cause its an eclipse.

either way, if they were 6, then doubleing the signal is 12V. thats too high for most amps isnt it

ah, cuz i did mine today and they tested at 2v, altho they were advertized at 5v, but if you tested them at the HU instead of at the amp im sure it would be higher, but thats not really whats important

LOL, no offense, but its cause you got a panasonic. my Pioneers tested at almost 2V which is what they were rated at.
