I just bought 100ft of RCA wireing there are arrows on either side of the writing where it says "HIgh resolution audio interconnect cable - OFHC Double sheilded" the arrows both point the same direction on the wire. I am guessing that this means that the current should flow in this direction.

What would cause this? WHy would there be a difference?

 

Dude you better delete this post quick.

Haha

Analog sound signals are ac. So the current goes both ways, so there is no correct direction. Unless there is some mystic voodoo I am missing.

 

only direction I've seen on anything speaker related was when I had some resistors. ??

No, the Monster Cable I201XLN's have the arrow also. it's because they had a grounding connection on one end of the RCA lines that you were suppose to connect to the signal sending unit (Head unit). The arrows were suppose to show which way the audio path would follow. It was suppose to help with noise reduction and blah blah, but I never sold them anyhow. Always sold the Micro's since they were much nicer to hide

 

Thanks guys, AC? I thought that RCA cable just sent electrical pulses in the form of Binary code that the amp picks up and amplifies. I put all the wires in with correct facing arrows, I don't know if it will help but hey I might as well try to do it right.

 

Alternating Current. Sine wave. Not binary at all. Analogue at it's finest.
