I've been searching for quite some time but haven't found any affordable solution for creating component cables from beldin 1694A and Canare RCAP-C53. Does anyone have suggestions, or know a cheap solution? If not, can I just use solder connectors (I'm proficient at soldering)

Silvercans,
Your local Radioshack etc will sell you coax stippers and crimp tools... You can solder as well for a better connection... You'll most likely get a reasonable result but not as good as a professional cable.

Silvercans, try this at PartsExpress. Seems like the compression connectors are a great option that they just added, and they offer color inserts for the cables.

Thanks for the link. Those looked promising until I saw the price of the compression tool ($100 :E ).Comment

Yeah, that's a bit steep. I have a snap'n'seal tool that I hope will work when I order some.____________________

you can get nice compression tools for about 40 bucks at lots of places. I compression stuff all the time no problems. Stay way from Crimp IMHO.The Bitterness of poor quality last longer than the joy of low prices.Comment

Hi all

I have got a RSP 1066 (you figured that) and had some queries on how to get optimum sound out of it for 2 channel stereo from... -
Hi guys, I finally got moved into the new house this weekend and spent the better part of the weekend (much to my wife's dismay) hooking up the HT. I have not had a chance to calibrate anything yet, but sat down a few times to try to watch some things on the TV, just to test drive the HD cable.

I know 75 ohm is the standard for Video cables and digital coax cables but what about audio? I was led to believe that audio cables should be at 110 ohms but I've heard otherwise...whats the deal?

I have been using a cheap Coax cable from my DVD player to my Rotel 1066 Processor, I was wondering will I hear any difference using a dearer $150 cable.
