  • I think this may be canare. It depends on the quality of cable you want. If your making really high quality cables it will be cheaper to make them. If you just want something to connect 2 ends cheaply it's probably going to be less costly to buy online or retail.

  • Hello. I want to join an RCA cabel to an audio jack cable. The RCAs have a red core and a white core each surronded by bare copper conductors, is that the earth? So do I have to connect the bare coppers together aswell or can i just ignore them ??

  • I have a Question. What if I have only one line -Positive- only. Can I be able to connect it to the middle place only and leave the negative free?

  • @elementaldesigns i have a video rca cable and a 3.5mm cable i want to attach them to use for cam corder.

    Please reply ASAP

  • Excellent work!

  • @BrutexxForce You have probably figured this out by now but it is called a modulator. It can converter coax signals to rca. $30 at radio shack i think.

  • If you're going for sound quality by making gold plated cables like this; I would suggest reading up on proper soldering technique. The technique you have used here is going to produce very poor quality joints. You should be heating the wire and the plug, and touching the solder to the wire/plug, NOT the iron like you are doing here. Placing the solder on the plug beforehand is also a big no no!

    Guaranteed in a few years these cables will stop functioning if flexed at all because of bad joints!

  • Does anyone Know how to turn a Coax to RCA cable. i had cox cable to the back of my tv, but my kids broke where i connect my coax to the back of the tv and i only can use the tv thru the front wich is the yellow white and red RCA cables. Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • What about the shield? Some say the shield and ground should be connected...
