RCA to 1/4 cables for hookup


Short of buying the parts and soldering up the cables myself, is anyone familiar with a supplier for quality pre-made cables to connect the BFD to the receiver and sub? Thanks.

Re: RCA to 1/4 cables for hookup


An option would be to use RCA cables with RCA to 1/4 adaptors on one end. They come in stereo and mono.

Here are some options at various price points. You can also find RCA to 1/ 4” cables in the pro audio or studio section of your local guitar shop.

Re: RCA to 1/4 cables for hookup


Thanks guys. I have the BFD enroute now, was hoping to setup with direct cables rather than having to add two adapters inline. I figure the less connections, the better. Thanks again.

Re: RCA to 1/4 cables for hookup


I found an RCA->1/4 cable right off the shelf at Radio Shack. From my BFD->amp, I used balanced (XLS?) connectors.

Re: RCA to 1/4 cables for hookup


I wish I had a balanced output off my receiver, I'd prefer to go that connection route. I actually just placed an order with one of the vendors that Wayne mentioned, they were resonably priced and use a high quality Belden cable. I'll let you all know what I think of them when they arrive.
