What’s the best one to use? Rg59u?

I was thinking that or rubber cement. But if they are tinned Cooper it shouldn’t be as much of a problem right, and connectors are gold plated, so shouldn’t rust

Can anyone recommend a high quality marine wire to use for building RCA cables? And a connector? Or would any gold plated connector work well? I assume it should. Here’s the combination that I’m looking at: Sewell gold plated end connections Anchor tinned copper coaxial cable

Yes I’ve seen wetsounds cords. The problem is they cost an arm and a leg. I’d be spending $300+. That’s why I’m looking to make my own

Bare copper does horribly in wet environments. I have some connections for my rear doors on my sprinter van and I have to clean them about once a week otherwise the system keeps thinking that the doors aren’t closed

Well many plugs are gold coated. So that’ll provide some protection. For example like these.

I’m connecting 3 amps. Over about a 15’ run, and I have to split 4 of the cables. I looked on Amazon and there’s a couple problems. #1 cheapest I can make this work if I bought it premade, is about $200 for marine rated cable. #2 I couldn’t even find marine rated splitters. So, looking to make...

I am looking at buying some used speakers and trying to compare what would be sound louder and better. The options are 4 JL audio mc7cwxc5-4 speakers (the older version of the current m6 models. They have a separate tweeter on the side. Each is 100 watt RMS, 7" speaker). A pair of wet sounds Rev...

Ok, what I understood from these videos is that the impedance/ohms is dynamic through the various frequencies. But he still comes back to recommending matching ohms of speaker to Ohms of amp in order not to overload the amp and fry it. And his last recommendation of just listening to it makes...

My situation is a little difference because the speakers are going on a boat. It's a fairly open environment, and there's engine noise, so the speakers will be turned up either all the way, or close to it fairly often. I'm also still confused about the other comments because they say that watts...

Ok, so now I'm supper confused. Because most of the time the watts RMS and ohms are the only parameters that are listed on speakers. If I shouldn't be looking at that, then what should I be looking at to determine the quality and loudness of the speaker? What should someone be looking at for the...

So in the scenario I described, it might be a little louder if I used 2 amps vs 1, but not noticeably?

Let me clarify. I simplified the question. The speaker would stay the same. It's the ohms that are changing. Here's a more detailed scenario. I have 4 speakers that are 4 ohm and 150 watts RMS. I have an 2 chanel amp that can produce 75 watts RMS at 4 ohms per channel or 150 watts RMS at 2 ohms...

I'm having a hard time understanding how Ohms and watts are affect the quality of a sound system setup. For example, what is the difference if you run a speaker that is 4 ohm and 300 watts RMS with an amp that matches the ohms and RMS watts per channel, vs running that same speaker at 2 ohms and...
