DIY Cables w/ generic RG6/U Cable


I've did quite a bit of research on this board to find out how to make my own "high end" video/audio cables, but I couldn't seem to find the one answer I was looking for.

Everyone seems to recomend either Belden or Canare cable for their projects, but before I go and buy new cable I have roughly 75' of generic Sat RG6U cable sitting in the basement. Give me a no bs answer, can I use this, or would I be better off buying new cable? Will I really notice a difference?


I plan on making component and general audio connects.
These are the 2 web sites that i plan on using for a template:

http://www.bus.ucf.edu/cwhite/theater/DIYCable.htm

Cheers
