hello i have a couple of sundown 3500's strapped @ half ohm and i was wondering what are the best rca cables i can use ?...

i was sure i saw a thread about it but i cant find it ....

help ?...

I got Stinger.....hopefully they work out well

i use knukonceptz krystal kable rca's, never had any problems.

I have tsunami's rite now...

but i want to buy the best possible rca's for this amps..

Save your cash man, you will not notice any difference between cheap and expensive.

Spend the money saved on something else.

There are no best cables, the thread your talking about it pertains to some RCA brands not being compatible with the Sundown amps. I think that issue has been fixed so nothing to worry about on that end. I use KnuKoncepts RCA's and some cheapos from Radio Shack with my Sundown amp with no problems.

Monoprice.com is where I got mine and they work great

That or python RCAs. The jackets are really thick so it helps from getting nicked out cut in the contours and corners of the car. Cheaply priced as well. Don't waste your money on expensive RCA. Its a marketing tool.

I use Knu, because their prettttttty.

No. Seriously.

Plus they matches my speaker wire.

But I have tried about a dozen different set of RCA's with minimal differences between them all.

thank you sir,,

how was it fixed ? was it on the older 3000d models that had issues?...

The Dayton brand from Parts Express is cheap and better quality than pretty much everything ^^^. The only downside is that the connectors are a little larger than some of the car audio stuff, so install must be planned accordingly....

25' Dayton RCAs

X3 on monoprice. Or you could buy my KNU ones

I have a pair of really expensive Streetwires RCA cables, Monoprice, and a pair scosche RCA's from walmart.. there isn't an audible difference between any of them.

At my old shop we did some playing around with different cables. This was back when 4v preouts was fairly new.

Some cables were better at shielding noise than others. The ends were better made and put together than the cheapy ones. Just playing around this didn't make any difference, but vibrations and bouncing around I've had some of the cheaper ones lose connection. As mentioned, thicker jackets do help protect them.

As far as quality, we couldn't see (or hear) any difference. But, with runs over 25ft we did see a bit of signal loss. Not much mind you, we are talking uV. Hardly anything to get excited about.

We tested probably 40 some odd different cables with all the same equipment. Ranging from the cheapy cable to stupid expensive high end monster and phoenix gold.

The "best" cost more than your car, but don't make an audibke difference. Any reasonable shielded cable works. I also like the $ performance of the Dayton wires.

Search is your friend.

Ask a dumb question get a dumb answer. Best is not a real qualifier. My answers are directly proportional to the effort the OP puts into his question. Pretty shitty to ocme on a forum and not at least try to show you searched and thought about your question before asking. Actually its despicable

lol ,you enjoy being a arseho...

i know a handfull of people that dont get on this site just because of you.

that cant be good for the SSA store

anyways, thanks for the help guys.

if people are scared to ask dumb questions and not doing any leg work aka not looking for the answer before asking, then I say good riddens to them lol! keep in mind there noob posting guilds and what not that everyone should read now if M5 scares them away just think what the guild will do to them lol!

It's BETTER for the store and the forum. Less idiots to deal with. If you can't handle the way Sean helps you, you pretty much can't handle simple life situations and we don't want or need you around anyways, so those people that don't come here will never be missed.

lol, money its money. it dont matter if it comes from a noob...
