12 best monoprice audio cables

Product description

Despite the introduction of more advanced audio and video signal cables such as HDMI and Toslink most audio and a large number of video connections still use the common RCA connector. This is a premium two-channel audio cable made of RG-59 75 ohm coaxial cable. The cable uses a 22AWG conductor and is shielded to prevent EMI or RFI interference from entering your audio system. The connectors are gold plated for smooth connections and to prevent corrosion. Each connector head features embedded color-coded rubber rings to ensure a firm grip when installing or removing the cable.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where do the ship from? I bought these last month and they got lost in shipping. Are they shipping from China or somewhere else
Answer:	Hello, This one will ship from Alabama.
Question:	Copper conductor? Or copper clad
Answer:	Copper conductor
Question:	Can the wires be pulled apart and completely separated if needed
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Why are patch cables made of such thin wire? 22AWG is really meagre
Answer:	Patch cables such as these are designed to carry relatively low-level audio and video signals over short distances, provide shielding of these signals from external interference, and also present standardized electrical parameters (such as characteristic impedance and capacitance per unit length) to the equipment to which they are connected. The standardized RG-59 coaxial cable, (as used in these patch cables) is used in consumer and commercial applications because it is cost effective while being adequately durable and efficient. The materials and dimensions used in RG-59 cable must be tightly controlled to meet specifications, and the diameter of the inner conductor is always around 22AWG. If the center conductors was made from heavier wire the other physical dimensions of the cable would also have to be made larger to meet the expected specifications. The resulting cable would be much larger, heavier and more expensive and would require larger, heavier, more expensive connectors as well! And it would not do a much better job of transmitting audio/video signals over short distances - which is the function of a patch cable. To be more concise about all this, suffice it to say, 22AWG gets the job done at a reasonable cost. These are very good patch cables by the way!

While most mobile devices use the 3. 5mm stereo headphone output most home audio systems with an amplifier or receiver use RCA jacks for audio inputs. This cable is ideal for connecting the output of your MP3 player or phone to your home audio system. The cable is made of heavy-duty coaxial cable for each conductor. The conductors are 22AWG and each conductor is shield to prevent EMI or RFI interference from entering your audio system. The cable is 12mm x 6mm thick while the connector housings are about 41mm long x 15mm diameter. Because of their size and weight these cables are best suited for more permanent connections such as from your PC to your sound system. If you want something more suitable for portable applications please try one of our standard 3. 5mm to RCA audio cables.

Question:	Can i use this cord to play music from my cell phone through my car speakers my car has r ca hook ups
Answer:	White, with the two internal leads (red/black) jacketed separately. Exactly what the picture shows.
Question:	Will this cable cure flatulence
Answer:	I use it to run 12 up yo 30 amps per run on 2 cores for holiday lighting. So yeah 2 amps is nothing on this cable.
Question:	is this cable shielded
Answer:	If purchased through DIY its pure copper 65 strand per conductor
Question:	Can this cable be pulled apart along the entire length (until the 3.5mm plug) for use with speakers more than a foot or two apart
Answer:	It is very flexible. For lack of a better word, the rubber sheathing is very "supple". I would call it far more flexible than regular speaker wire.

User questions & answers

Question:	The shipping weight for 100 ft of 14 AWG pure copper wire is listed as 1 pound. Can that be right? Seems awfully light to me
Answer:	I agree and don't remember the weight - I still have 30 feet of it. The spool it came on weighs about 4.5 ounces and with the 30 feet wire, it is about 1 pound 3 ounces. It really is nice wire - wish I had 10 more feet as I need 40' to run to one of my speakers. I need to check if it comes in 50' quantity.
Question:	The two strands in the picture look the same. How do you distinguish +/- in long runs
Answer:	Both strands of wire are identical. The only difference is one is marked with a blue stripe to help you identify that specific strand. When connecting the wires, ensure you connect each strand to the same corresponding terminal on each end of your connection. For example, blue stripe to negative, no-stripe to positive. Connect in the same manner on both ends and you shouldn't have any problems. For cleaner connections, add banana plugs or pin plugs to the ends (banana plugs for binding post terminals, pin plugs for spring clip terminals.)
Question:	Is this speaker wire thick? Which one is thicker, 12 awg or 14 awg? im confused. thanks
Answer:	12 awg is thicker than 14 awg. The lower the number, the thicker the wire. I think this is very nice speaker wire. It is thick but I just have it laid on the floor.
Question:	What's "enhanced" about it
Answer:	This speaker wire features two conductors made of high purity (greater than 99.95% pure), oxygen-free bare copper. Pure Bare Copper is a superior conductor to the copper clad aluminum (CCA) conductors used in most other inexpensive speaker wire. CCA is only about 68% as conductive as pure bare copper. This additional resistance is added to the impedance of your speakers and can negatively effect the sound.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with Behringer HA400 4-Channel Stereo Headphone Amplifier? Trying to connect my mixer to output to my headphone amplifier
Answer:	As this is a balanced cable, yes it should connect a mixer and the HA500, but you need two cables - one for left and one for right signals.
Question:	Will this fit in the jack of Beats Solo 2? I don't see dimensions for the jack diameter
Answer:	I don't think so but I don't have Beats headphones. Typically headphones use 1/8th inch size and sound reinforcement uses 1/4 inch. This cable is 1/4inch... Hope that helps. Try searching for 1/8 inch cables and sometimes male to male or male to female etc. helps to return the results you are needing.
Question:	This cable is 1/4-inch (trs) male to male 16awg cable is that right? what is trs? doest that mean stereo phono?or are they two different things
Answer:	I'm not sure what awg the cable is inside, but yes it is male to male 1/4" TRS. TRS means "tip-ring-sleeve", and is capable of carrying 2-channel unbalanced stereo signals, or balanced signals for a single channel. I'm not sure what you mean by stereo phono, but I don't think that would describe this cable. Do you want an 1/8th inch stereo connector? It would still be TRS, but smaller (think iPod-headphone-jack-sized, rather than guitar-cable-sized)
Question:	Looking for a cable that goes from my head phone jack (MP3 player)to the Aux jack in my car. Is this it
Answer:	Hi Kathy,No, this is not the cable you want for that use as it has 1/4" tips, and you need 1/8" (aka 3.5mm) ones. Try this one instead: http://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-109765-6-Feet-Stereo-Plated/dp/B00AJHBD7I/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1411641314&sr=1-2&keywords=monoprice+male+to+male+3.5mm. You might also want to consider a 3-foot cable; 6 feet might be a bit long for car usage.Cheers,Matt
