what are the best patch chords. i need to hook up my subs.. just wanted to know the best brand.. i heard monster has sucked for the past few years.. wondered about knukonceptz or stinger... whats the best any idears?
thanks

 

come on anybody.. does the rca quality really matter???? oxygen free copper vs non oxygen free.. is there a difference??? shielded vs non shielded. if there is difference is it audible??

 

Shielded
I don't know about the oxygen free thing, think thats for speaker wire. If you have any part of the wires inside the rca cables exposed to air you might have some issues.

Wires are the most over looked under-rated part of your system, yet IMO the most important. If you go cheap then you going to get cheap sound. Buy the good ones, same goes with power and speaker wire.

Monster, Stinger, some would say Street wires, but I not a fan of there RCA's, just something about having a full metal jacket that worries me. They do make good Power cable though.

I run Monster myself so take it for what its worth.
Expect to pay about $50.00 (Thats canadian funds) per channel, so if its just for the sub, then $50, if you need front, rear and sub, then $150. You can do it for cheaper or pay way more, this is just a guideline. In the end it all depends on what your using them for.

 

To each is own in my opinion. I have 3 sets of brand new and very NICE streetwires brand rca cables i would like to sell if your intrestd.. Here is a link... https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/parts-66/f-s-intercooler-guagepod-fatmat-subbox-159461/

 

i think i am going to go with knukonceptz. ive heard bad things about monster wires these past few years. this company seems to have a good following especially in the budget sq market.

as long as the equipment is good and the install is good anything decent like stinger, monster, fosgate, streetwires, knu will work. Ultimately its the install that's going to make the biggest difference on noise and such.

I personally have all rockford fosgate install equipment including rcas in my car
