Searching for 2M long RCA cables ***UPDATE***

Post by JayGold »

I've been looking into the KnuKonceptz Krystal Cables:

http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetai ... ID=KRY2.2M

Unfortunately I can't tell from the pics on their site if the RCA pants will allow the cables to reach from one RCA terminal end of an MS2125 to the other as they are far apart.

Can anyone confirm?

What other budget audiophile grade RCA cable options do I have for fitment of these MS amps to provide me a sleek look and secure connection to go along with the rest of my Knu cabling?

i can measure the distance for you of the knu cables.

also, maybe you could try 90degree adapters and turn them bot inward?

I do have some OS PG 90 degree connects O:)

A measurement from the V of the pants out to the RCA end would be great!

the lenght is shorter then i remembered. 3 inches exactly to the point within the barrel where it would connect when you pressed it on (so a little more then 3.5 to the very tip of the gold + connection)

I think that'll work (given they get them back in stock) since the distance from MS RCA center to center measures 5.0". The 90 degree ends I have add 0.5" each to give me approx 7.0" total or 3.5" per side from the V cable pants out.

How is the flexibility of the Krystal Cables overall and from the RCA connector end (do they flex easily 45 degrees or 90 degrees)?

KnuKoncepts are out of the Krystal Cable RCAs for another 4-6 weeks :roll:

So I received a 2M KnuKoncept Krystal Cable RCA from PP member rscecil007 today in the mail from his sale thread, slightly used. First impression I noticed a nice built thick jacketed RCA with nice grippy aluminum ends and gold connectors. Upon further investigation I noticed all but one of the four heat shrink around the wire solder joints were tight. Looks like someone forgot to finish manufacturing the cable ends, not a big deal.

A bigger deal is fitment, they fail to reach on an MS amp with the pants:

My old school Stinger Dream Series, same issue:

Phoenix Gold Csi Compact Super Triple Shield Series....Ahhhhh good ol' PG:

those pg cables are hard to come by, I have been collecting them all year for the pggt. I hope I have enough and some extra by now as I have a pretty good pile. Once I am done what ever extra I have will be posted here if anyone else is looking for some.

Seems like they are constantly out of stock. The quality of the cables are top notch, but the aluminum connectors have a tendancy to strip out where they attach to the gold plated portion. Kind of a PITA when you go to unplug them.

i have ordered from them several times for about a dozen stinger rca cables and the shipping label came from an AAMP warehouse at a remote location. I can not say as to why they sell streetwires. The confirmation email was from an AAMP email address as well. :wink:
