There are many options out there, but I find it easiest to start where many others have treaded before.
In todays exersise I are gonna explain how to build your own RCA to RCA psdueo balanced (unbalanced) patch cable pairs. Sound like fun? The tools required for this exercise are: An Exacto knife. Wire cutters A Soldering iron. Solder. And a hand crimper. Other helpful tools...
The parts you listed above in your first post don't really fit together. The connector is for an RG59 cable, which is like a cable tv/coaxial cable. It is also more common to use 20 to 30 awg wire in interconnects rather than 10-18 awg found in speaker cables, although they function either way.Comment

If you want to be picky, get ahold of the electrical characteristics of the cable you're going to use.Wes Miaw, Neko Audio LLC
