Default What brand of RCA cables you guys use?

What kind of RCA cables you all use from your head units back to your amps?

I am debating on the Tsunami RTP series or the cheaper 700 series from them. You can read some detail on 'em by looking at Tsunami's Product Guide pg 7-9 (it's some crazy flash online book). Got a buddy who says Tsunami products are crap and another buddy that loves 'em.

I'm looking for reasonably cheap but still offers good shielding etc (do they even exist for cheap??)

I'm using Scosche ones from WalMart and they work just fine. If I did it all over again though i'd get better cables just to have them.

most car audio people will tell you the same thing... they either work or not....
the only thing thats better with the more expensive ones are some of them are repairable on the ends....

thats the only thing i like about my old fosgate white wolf rcas.... ive repaired the ends 3-4times now by soldering the wires back on the terminals.
before i just replaced the whole rcas. but still not very many nice rcas are repairable on the ends.
dont think to hard into some rcas... just remember to run the rcas away from the amplifiers power wires to prevent any unwanted noises.

I used a Monster Cable 6 Channel RCA in my Mustang and an E2 by Scosche kit in my Civic. I was actually impressed with the E2 kit, even though it was slightly smaller than the 1/0 advertised by it. Not that it matters because the most RMS power I am going to run in the Civic is 1200 watts anyhow.

I just use the Rockford Fosgate single twist RCAs. hey work great and are fairly inexpensive. I have had no problems with them yet.
