will these connect a CD player with stereo system?
A shopper
on May 28, 2022
BEST ANSWER: Yes, if both your CD player has an rca "out", and your stereo has an rca "in". Use red to red and black to black and you should be all set. Most component CD players have a built in DAC allowing you to use rca cables.

Are these copper wire cables - oxygen free?
New User U
on Jan 12, 2017
BEST ANSWER: The high-end speaker wire industry markets oxygen-free copper as having enhanced conductivity or other electrical properties that are supposedly advantageous to audio signal transmission. However, conductivity specifications for common C11000 Electrolytic-Tough-Pitch (ETP) and higher-cost C10200 Oxygen-Free (OF) coppers are identical.[12] Much more expensive C10100, a highly refined copper with silver impurities removed and oxygen reduced to 0.0005%, has only a one percent higher conductivity—insignificant in audio applications.[12] OFC is nevertheless sold for both audio and video signals in audio playback systems and home cinema.[12]

Yes, but OF is excelent for one thing... durability... the cable will last more than your life (lifetime), the other, certainly NOT, specially if you leave close to the ocean.

They are copper, but probably not oxygen free. Mine are 75' and work very well.

Are these low capacitance wires . I need a 20 foot run for a turntable?
A shopper
on Mar 19, 2018
BEST ANSWER: I don't really suggest hooking up a turntable directly with such a long run, regardless of capacitance. Rather, you should hook up to a preamp locally then you can have a long run if needed to your amp. The problem is the very low signal which will not be transmitted differentially meaning you will get noise regardless; the preamp (which you can get just for your turntable providing line-level to your amp or a processor or .receiver) will be less sensitive.

For a length of 20-25 feet, I rather suggest the Coaxial Cable #2683, provided that your turntable has a built-in preamplifier. There wouldn't be any capacitance problem with that kind of cable.
If not, it's not advisable to use such length of wire.

Is a grounding cable needed? I plan to run this from my turntable, with no preamp, to a preamp module and then to my powered speakers.
Allen T
on Aug 19, 2021
BEST ANSWER: The phono preamp should have a grounding post to attach the ground wire from the turntable. That's all the grounding you need to do. I also bought these cables to use with a phone preamp and I've been happy with the results.

Normally a grounding cable is needed with a turntable.. but it doesn't need to be anything special. Any regular thin wire will do, if you have a piece of "scrap" wire for the ground it should be OK.

Exactly what I needed
Seems good quality. I use this for some "audiophile" stuff. The connectors are snug (but not stupidly tight), and the cable has a good heft to it (but it's just 22AWG so it's the insulator, not the wire itself). I like it; nothing on this to improve that I can see. Basically, if you're looking for a particular length that does this job, and you need 18", then this is the one for you. (I have plenty of longer ones that I could have used, but I avoid using longer ones when shorter ones will do, since these cables can pick up interference from 60hz AC power, so the shorter the better. Generally the interference isn't noticeable unless the signal wires are in parallel with AC wires, in which case you can pick up "sixty cycle hum".)

A great and inexpensive upgrade over basic cables
Perfect for an interconnect between 2 close stereo components. I thought my receiver was having issues due to static being present but changing over to this cable eliminated the issue. It's an inexpensive upgrade with noticeable impact and I plan on upgrading the rest of my cheaper RCA cables with these.
