    Help. Terminating beldin coax for component cables

    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 ).

          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.
