Is it possibly to use and get good results using regular cable, e.g. Belden Series 6, for digital audio and video feeds?
I am talking about regular CATV coax - the stuff that the cable company runs in a house. I want to use it more for powered subs and also for interconnects or patch cords between components.
Could the cable be terminated with RCA ends instead of F-type connectors? If it works to bring HDTV signals into a sat. receiver, can it be used to send signals to powered subs, interconnects for DVD Audio and even component video? Is the length of runs limited?
Other then the regular CATV cable is solid core & not as flexible as some more expensive stranded core, why don't more guys use it? Is it going to lose some signal quality?
