In Reply to: RCA Interconnect wiring options question posted by Davy on March 16, 2007 at 11:55:55:
The "problem" per se, is that you you are using a cable for something other than its intended purpose... ie it is a balanced audio cable, intended to make balanced connections, and may not be the best choice for unbalanced interconnects. That is not to say that it shouldn't be done, but it may not get you to where you want to go (sonically speaking). You have to figure out what to do with the "extra" conductor. Some people think that extra conductor will compromise the design regardless of how you deal with it. Technically speaking, the only "proper" way to terminate the cable is the way that I described to you. That does not mean that you cannot terminate it in another way that sounds better to you! Using the twisted pair together as your signal conductor won't harm anything as long as the shield is connected at both ends. Try to ping Jon Risch or Abe Collins if you don't get a satisfactory response in this thread.Cheers
