About the RCA Cables range

Choose the plug type and cable length before comparing other details. Standard RCA leads usually use red and white plugs for right and left audio channels. Check whether your equipment needs RCA plugs at both ends, or a 1/4-inch plug on one end. Measure the cable path, including space around equipment, then select the shortest length that reaches without tension. Longer options can help with separated components but create more cable to manage. A dual cable keeps stereo channels together, while a single lead suits a mono connection.

RCA, phono and line-level cable are related search terms, but the connectors and application still need checking. A turntable may require a separate ground wire to connect to an amplifier or phono preamp, so choose a Hosa Technology model marked with a ground cable when required. Do not confuse red and white audio RCA plugs with yellow composite video plugs. This range is organised by connector type, cable length and whether the cable is a single lead, dual cable or includes grounding. Check the product listing for the exact plug configuration.

RCA Cables questions

Are RCA cables the same as phono cables?

RCA describes the connector and cable format, while phono usually refers to a turntable connection. A turntable setup may need RCA plugs plus a separate ground wire. Check your turntable and amplifier or phono preamp before choosing a standard RCA interconnect.

What do the red and white RCA plugs mean?

For stereo analogue audio, red normally connects the right channel and white connects the left channel. Match each plug to the same coloured socket on the equipment. The colours identify channels, not a difference in sound quality or cable direction.

What RCA cable do I need for a turntable?

Check whether the turntable has built-in phono preamplification and whether it includes or requires a ground connection. If a ground wire is needed, choose a compatible RCA cable with ground cable, such as a Hosa Technology CRA-DJ model, and connect the wire to the amplifier or preamp ground terminal.
