12ft High-quality Coaxial Audio/Video RCA CL2 Rated Cable - RG6/U 75ohm (for S/PDIF, Digital Coax, Subwoofer, and Composite Video)
This Digital Coax Cable is made from premium quality RG-6/U with double copper braid shielding to prevent signal degradation caused by EMI and RFI interference. This cable is ideal for conducting S/PDIF digital audio signals and other high-bandwidth content, but it can also be used for composite video and other line level RCA signals.
The CL2 rating on this cable indicates that the jacket has been treated so that it complies with fire safety regulations, making it safe for use through or within the walls of residential class buildings.
Features:
-
Gold plated RCA male connectors
-
Rubber-covered, molded connector housings
-
97% pure oxygen-free copper conductor
-
Double shielded with copper braiding
-
22 pF per foot capacitance
-
75 ohm impedance

| 12ft High-quality Coaxial Audio/Video RCA CL2 Rated Cable - RG6/U 75ohm (for S/PDIF, Digital Coax, Subwoofer, and Composite Video) | | | Question: Can I use this cable to transmit composite video? | | Answer: Yes. | | Question: How can this one cable be effective for use with digital audio, LFE and composite video? | | Answer: It is not uncommon for the CE industry to base a signal transmission standard on a pre-existing cable format. In fact, it would be very inefficient to make a new type of cable for every new type of signal (even though it sometimes seems like they do it anyway). In this case, all three of these signal types were based on signal transmission through 75 ohm coaxial cable terminated with RCA connectors. In fact, any signal transmission standard that utilized 75ohm coax cable with RCA connectors can use these cables. | | Question: Isn''t it better to use dedicated cables for subwoofer connection? | Answer: What are often labeled Subwoofer cable are often a result of Marketing Spin and/or a little Consumer Electronics Voodoo.
If the cables are a result of pure spin, then the cables are exactly the same and there''s no reason to pay more for a cable that is specifically labeled, "Subwoofer Cables."
If the cables really are "Tuned" to more effectively carry only the low frequency signals, then that''s probably a lot worse. Most high end powered subwoofer manufacturers will tell you that they put a lot of development time into matching the cabinet design, drivers, amp and crossover network in order to tune the subwoofer and give it the right voice. This tuning is based on the fact that the inputs of the sub will receive a full frequency signal that the crossover will filter to provide the appropriate signal for the amp to amplify. But if the cable is pre-filtering the signal then it is in fact coloring the signal and causing the crossover to filter out of tune. Or that is, the sound would not be as rich and full as it would be if the components of the sub were allowed to do its job with a full range signal from a proper cable.
| | Question: What''s the difference between RG59 and RG6? | Answer: RG59 and RG6 stands for Radio Guide. It''s a standardization form for coax cables and specifies things such as impedance (75 ohms in this case) and wire gauge. The RG59 uses a 22AWG (American Wire Gauge) center wire and the RG6 uses a 18AWG wire. That means that the RG6 is a thicker cable than the RG59 since lower AWG''s denote a thicker wire. Thicker gauge wires are ideal for longer cable runs.
Our RG6 premium cables also feature more robust RCA connectors and are certified for in-wall use.
| | Question: Are the connectors gold plated? What does gold plating do? | | Answer: Yes, they are. Gold plating provides resistance against corrosion that would otherwise impede signal transfer and could damage connections on equipment. | | Question: Are these cables rated for in-wall use? What is CL2? | Answer: Yes, they are. CL2 means they have been certified by Underwriters Laboratories for in-wall use. It means that these cables have a slow burning outer jacket, should meet most fire codes.
The CL2 rating does not affect the appearance or performance of the cables. They can be used in or out of wall. |

| | good quality cable | Pros: Superior quality cable. Way thicker and stronger than most sub woofer cables especially for this price.
Cons: none
First I purchased a RCA cable from Microcenter for $17.00 because I wanted to have my subwoofer connected as soon as it arrived. The cable from Microcenter looked decent, but I thought that it was over priced, I then ordered the cable from Monoprice and returned the cable to Microcenter. The Monoprice cable was twice as thick and looked way stronger for one third the price that I paid at Microcenter.

| | Boom Boom Subwoofer | Pros: Flexible and nice plug although it unscrews the cover if you were to hold the plug if you were to plug or unplug the connecter. But how many times will you plug and unplug realistically. Once it is setup you won't be touching your SUB unless something goes wrong or you want to move your SUB location. -12 Ft is more than enough for most installations unless your setup is in a very big room.
I def. recommend upgrade your subwoofer cable from what the manufacturer gives you in the box. I got Harman Kardon AVR and speaker system and it came with a flimsy RCA type subwoofer cable to hook up to LFE port on the SUB. Once I replaced the Mono version of SUBwoofer cable I could hear the big difference in the Bass. "Boombastic" LOL.... It sounded much cleaner and deeper. Definite improvement on the LFE signals. Next project would be to upgrade Monoprice Speaker wires 14 Gauge.

| | Eliminate Sub-woofer Hum | Pros: Great quality and extra shielding eliminates any electrical interference
Cons: Black is the only color option.
I have multiple powered sub-woofers in my home theater setup. I use low level RCA inputs in all of them to receive the signal fed from my receiver. I was using a variety of very thin and inexpensive RCA cables and splitters for my cable runs that ranged from 3 feet to 35 feet to reach around the listening room to each of the subs. I was experiencing a constant low frequency hum that was emitting from all of the subs when the system was powered on. I feared that I may have a difficult-to-resolve ground fault issue causing the hum. Before tacking the ground fault issue I decided to first try upgrading all of my RCA cable runs so I ordered these high quality cables in 3 foot, 10 foot, 15 foot and 35 foot lengths along with Monoprice RCA splitters (PID 7187). I am thrilled that installing these new high quality cables and splitters has COMPLETELY eliminated the hum noise in my setup. If you are setting up a sub-woofer system for the first time or if you have a similar hum issue in your existing setup then I highly recommend that you get these high quality cables from Monoprice. The quality can't be beat and the price is reasonable.

I have a 5.2 A/V Receiver These cables gives me the quality connection for my dual subwoofer surround sound. As usual with Monoprice the quality and delivery is exceptional.

| | Perfect | Pros: Great cable, great price and fast shipping
I have been converting my computer over to play on my TV and needed a long coax audio cable to reach my receiver. Monoprice is great, the cable was not expensive and shipping was shorter than expected. Awesome!
