lovinthehd Audioholic Jedi Mar 1, 2023 #3 Why is the run that long to the amp? https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=5346
Speedskater Audioholic General Mar 1, 2023 #4 25 feet is rather long for monoprice RCA interconnect cables. For long RCA interconnect cables the Blue Jean Cables LC-1 is a better choice. So to, are other coax cables with a very heavy braided shield are good choices for long RCA cables.

j_garcia Audioholic Jedi Mar 1, 2023 #7 Bluejeans LC-1 would probably still be my choice. You can specify length. Yes, it costs a bit more than average, but you also won't find a better constructed cable with no fluff and BS about magic properties. Stereo Cables at Blue Jeans Cable

Those Star-Quad bulk cables are good for balanced XLR interconnect cables used in harsh interference situations. BUT. But they are a poor choice for a RCA unbalanced interconnect.And when used in RCA cables they are often mis-wired. Once again. For long RCA cables chose a coax with a heavy braided shield.

Click to expand... They also have rca’s in the coax I use them I have no need for star quad cables I use the rca’s made with Mongami coax 2964 I think it is . I don’t remember saying star quad in my post worlds best cable makes many different coax cables with many brands and are reasonable price for many lengths or can be custom made to lengths if you can’t find what he wants .

Click to expand... Since the amp has XLR, a source with XLR would make it better if long runs (~25ft) are expected. A good quality RCA will still work though.

Speedskater Audioholic General Mar 2, 2023 #16 Yep, for long runs, an XLR balanced interconnect system is better. (but not always available)
