RCA Leads?

[dean.ryan]

Looking at doing a whole car setup, 6 ch head unit etc.

Does anyone think 2.5 m will be too short? Should I go for the 5 m cable? I dunno, lol...

[Scoobydoo]

Depends if the items you have to connect, are further than 2.5m apart or not.

LOL

[mattapo]

where are you putting them? under the seat, in the boot? dont get SCA ones, we get lots in that the plugs fall off the ends

[newsuba]

Definitely don\'t skimp.

Last thing you want is an RCA coming lose while it\'s carrying signal... kaboom.

Best RCA\'s by far are WBT Nextgen with locking collars, maybe overkill for ICE.

;D

Q for up-to-date ICE fiends - Are there any car systems using XLR/balanced connections ?

2.5 will be fine

I believe a few of the DLS Ultimate amps can do balanced... they are gorgeous amps inside too. But there\'s not a lot of balanced sources out there...

I\'ve seen a couple of conversions where people have modded dbx\'s to run 12v and then used them as a processor, that\'s a kinda cool way of doing things.

I was well tired when I wrote that.. yeah it\'s to connect the Head Unit to amp(s) in the back. And i\'m doing a full set of JVC. Not spending millions

Might just use raptor ones for now, till it breaks or something lol.

[Scoobydoo]

Well I happen to have a number of matching RCA\'s, that you can have off me if you\'re interested. Very good quality Raptor ones that were bought a few years ago, no cheap junk that they sell now.

2.5m will not reach from headunit to boot.

I have 1 x 5m, 1 x 2m, 2 x 1m, and 4 x splitters. You can have all for $50

[dean.ryan]

What are the splitters exactly? 1 RCA to 2?

[calibre]

Stinger can be had cheaply on Ebay, pretty good for the money. I got some 5m 2>2 mid level rca\'s and they are great.

similar to these:

but those ones Scoobydoo has are probably the best deal if they are still tight fitting etc.
