Know before you buy
The Cardas GRCM 6mm RCA plug is specifically engineered to fit cables with an outer diameter of 6mm.
This plating combination offers a balance of excellent conductivity from the silver and superior corrosion resistance and durability from the rhodium, ensuring a long-lasting, high-fidelity connection.
Yes, using non-magnetic materials prevents electromagnetic interference and eddy currents, which helps maintain a cleaner, more accurate signal path for your audio equipment.
FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) is used as a high-performance insulator to minimize signal loss and maintain electrical stability, which is critical for preserving the integrity of high-end audio signals.
These connectors are sold individually, which allows you to purchase the exact number required for your specific custom cable assembly project.
