You saved me $150 for new pc speakers. Cat broke the RCA cable in the sub and thought I had to throw the whole damn thing out. Thank you!

Many thanks for making this information available to me. This was one of the rare moments after watching a youtube video, I was left feeling it was time well spent. I especially appreciated the video's content rich formatting, coupled with the presenter's audio and visual stylings. These worked well for me to serve as an effective conduit, transferring all the information I needed, quickly elevating me from layman to novice, as I absorbed the knowledge as readily as water to a thirsty sponge.

Thank you for the excellent close up video showing exactly how it's done. I have some 27 year old audio quest cables that were never properly sleeved like that. The guy that cut them cut off too much and it always bothered me. Time to fix it. lol

It is better to use the red wire for conductor (or 'signal' or '+') and the black wire for return (or ' - ' ). That leaves the shied. (1) It can be unattached - the so called 'floating shield'. (2) Better is to attach the shield to one end of the rca. Solder it to the same part as the black return wire. Incidentally, in this version the attached end should be at the source (eg if the wire was to run between a CD player and an amp the shield end of the cable would be inserted at the CD). (3) Best in my opinion is to solder both the shield and and black return wires to both ends of the RCA.

hi Thanks for this video, i assume you are working with a neutrik plug. I just tried to solder a neutrik rca plug with the cable but I could not understand how to crimp the cable in place. I notice there was too much movement in the signal wire and it broke. I can now see your technique on getting the drain wire soldered on the end and bending the signal wire to stop any movement. Plugs are normally are crimped so i did not know how to solder this plug Thanks I can have another go now.

My cable wire has red, white and the shield. Do I put both the red and white in the cup or do I only put the red? I'm try to make an RCA cable. Thank you.

Why do they only use a few strands of wire on rca wires? I have a set of Rockford Fosgate rca cables that are huge. They are atleast half inch around. Well the ends weren’t on good and ripped right off. Inside the wire is so small there is hardly enough wire to even soiled !

What temperature do you have your soldering iron at for these? I've never managed to get it right. Either the insulation on the cable melts back before the joint is made, or while tinning the RCA connector the insulation around the centre pin gets soft from having to have the iron on it for so long.

Look into getting a soldering station. Weller makes some nice ones which allow you to adjust the temperature and have a removable "Pen" with a length of cable that connects to the station. By adjusting the temperature to a higher setting, (800 degrees) , it allows the flux and solder to melt fast without the heat travelling down the wire too fast. You'll only continue to be frustrated if you're using a non adjustable heat iron, like what radio shack sells. Best part is that the Weller pens have removable tips that you can replace when they wear out and there are tons of shapes and sizes. I think I paid 50.00 for a used station off ebay. There are also Chinese made ones that I hear are pretty nice.

Aren't you supposed to heat the rca connector and let it melt the solder? You seem to be melting the solder directly, which I have always heard is not the way to do it.
@smalltimesnd

That's correct. You heat the material and apply the solder to the material. It could be either camera angle or I'm just close to the iron. Soldering Principles are discussed here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lYxpr61onJ2bZH4

To reiterate the request of "discoking62," below: How does one solder a female audio RCA connector, especially the signal connection=?
@mryreagan
6 жыл бұрын
The female RCA solder connector is similar to soldering the 1/4" or 1/8" phono connectors. The "tip" is traditionally the center cup. While the sleeve is the remaining outside cup. I say that since there are various types of RCA manufacturers that can make them differently. I hope this helps.

An RCA cable only sends the signal down a single wire. And then you have the return. That's why you need left and right channels with separate RCAs on your home stereo system. The black wire wouldn't do anything because there is no signal for it to pass. As Tom says in the video though, we show a three wire cable because you might, for example, later choose to use a balanced connection like an XLR where you would use all three wires. But for an RCA, which is an unbalanced connection, you really only need one wire and a ground. Hope that helps!

Hi Saree. Thank you for asking. Personally, I am partial to quality tools. I believe well made tools fit and perform better. While I have listed certain brands and model numbers below, you may find that an alternative quality tool is more to your liking. The vice is a Panavise 381 with the vacuum base. For benchwork, you may prefer the 350 with the parts tray. Others have often made their own jig to hold the connector. The universal strippers with the red handles are Xcelite 101S. The diagonal cutters with the blue handles are Klein D244-5C. For small trim work, you may also like a pair of flush cutters such as the Xuron 2175. I’m not certain which strippers were used to remove the jackets from the individual conductors, but I use Klein 11055 and 11057 strippers. The soldering station is a Weller WTCPT using 700 degree tips. The solder itself is a Multicore SN63. The heat gun is a Master Appliance HG-501A (120 V version). There are some larger diagonal cutters later in the video. Those are Channellock 436. Regards, Tom
