Sorry for the newbie question. If i am going to purchase cable for these, what type of termination is best for the LS50? Thank you.

Bare wire, spade lugs [Vampire Wire makes a wide spectrum] or banana plugs [Monster makes a good heavy duty pair $20]. Wire? Go to REDCO.COM. You want oxygen free copper multi-strand cable. Mogami makes a great multi-strand cable 11/12 guage. In general, 10-16 guage multi strand oxygen free copper speaker wire will do the job.

@joseph, excellent rec I totally forgot about them Morrow audio when I was in my A/V prime up in LA. Another great place is Audio Advisor which is like the Victoria's secret catalog for guys LoL. They have the top dogs on clearance/close outs all the time from AudioQuest, Analysis Plus, Cardas, Kimber, etc. And all your speakers, subwoofer, amps, receiver, stands n racks, tons of tweeks for the geekiest nerds.@pedro,,sorry amigo but you pretty much lost all credibility the moment you typed Monster.

I used monoprice redmere technology cables.at 60ft they worked without a power splitter perfectly, but I do have a power splitteron just for safety..

Doesn't matter.Doesn' matter, really. Data and signal cables just need a decent connector on each end. Speaker cables are different, you need a fairly wide Guage for that, I prefer 12, but signals, being low voltage, have different concerns, quality terminations, etc

RG 59 to my understanding is an older cable. I would think it would work for this purpose. I used RG 6 andIt works great. If you have ends on it just try it out on temporary basis. I bought the right length at Home Depot

I haven't seen these particular cables, but I do have some low end ones I bought 10-15 years back that had name brand high quality ends and were good cables. My best guess is that these are their low-end import/economy cables that are mentioned on the CBI site. Probably, non-brand name connectors, a very basic cable/jacket with a spiral shield. I found this on a CBI Professional Wiring Systems PDF: ML2: CBI 24 Gauge Balanced Wire - Very Flexible - Made in USA CBI Nickel XLR's - Hand Soldered in our NY Production Facility Cable Colors: Blk, Red, Blu, Pur, Yel, and Grn 15 16.50 A Trouble Free, Basic Microphone Cable From our CB2 Line of Quality Import Cables Economical / Promotional Cable MLC-20ft Note: It states in one place it is a USA made cable and in another that it is an imported cable. I like and use their products, I would stay away from the low end stuff from just about anyone. These would make good, inexpensive, short term, back-up cables if one of your good ones failed; I wouldn't use these in front of an audience that I was getting paid to entertain......for very long............ That is my professional opinion. Hope this helps.

Yup it works great with both. I prefer to use the double ended straight tips for my bass' they plug on the side.My Dean Ml & Razors & ESP all have the plug in the front.for those i use the L shaped end cable

I'd imagine the only difference would be the length of the wire. Keep in mind though that signals degrade based on the length of the wire. My 0.5 cable works flawlessly. If I needed more length I'd probably go for something gold plated.

Thanks Justin, I appreciate the feedback.Do you know if the cables are proprietary, meaning that you cannot use a longer cable?

1,000 foot cable pre-terminated would be a useless cable, since the limitation is 300'. You will definitely want to purchase crimpers and mod plugs. If you're newer to terminations, I would suggested the EZ RJ45 stuff. Much easier and quicker.

Mine has L14-30, 4 prong. It is a great cable for my needs.Hope this helps.

Hello Aaron, I have two QC15s and decided to buy one of these cables for each ( ussualy I keep one QC for my international travels and another in our beach house). The cable is very good and works perfectly well. Just don´t worry - I had no problems at all.

I also was searching the same thing a few months ago. Luckily, I ran into a guy on the RCGroups forum who makes these cables. I think you are looking for the UM 1S Pigtail cable from his newly launched website http://jkmrcsolutions.com/categories/battery_connectors/ultra_micro/ He is great at answering messages as well because I always contact him through the RCGroups.com website, his screen name is JulietKiloMikeHope this answers your question.

the LMR cables are 50ft. the connectors are larger diameter so if you are fishing it through a hole you need to drill a hole twice as big. If i were to do it again i would crimp it by hand

Wrong gender. I think the SM58 has male termination, and so does this cable. I use this cable to output sound to a mixer.

Peters answer is the best. If you are not a professional installer do not hassle with different types of cables and connectors.

If you keep the run under 30 feet it will be fine. 50 feet should work, but for reliability and better life and performance would suggest RG-213 coax. It will rssist salt water problems better also. In either case be sure to seal the connectors with sealant.

In addition to my previous answer, consider low-loss cable. It is more expensive, but compare the db loss per foot between that and RG-6. Yes, the cable they provide is RG-6. It is not a even premium RG-6.
