2. Speaker wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaker_wire

   Speaker wire is a passive electrical component described by its electrical impedance, Z.The impedance can be broken up into three properties which determine its performance: the real part of the impedance, or the resistance, and the imaginary component of the impedance: capacitance or inductance.

3. Speakon connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speakon_connector

   Speakon connectors are designed to be unambiguous in their use in speaker cables. With 1/4" speaker jacks and XLR connections, it is possible for users to erroneously use low-current shielded microphone or instrument cables in a high-current speaker application. Speakon cables are intended solely for use in high current audio applications.

4. RCA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RCA_connector

   Varying cable quality means that a cheap line-level audio cable might not successfully transfer component video. For digital audio, as long as a connection is successfully made using the cables the sound will remain faithful to the original signal because a digital signal can only be fully received or not received at all. Cables should meet the ...

5. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   Chassis or panel connectors permanently attached to a piece of equipment so users can connect a cable to a stationary device; PCB mount connectors soldered to a printed circuit board, providing a point for cable or wire attachment. [6]: 56 (e.g. pin headers, screw terminals, board-to-board connectors)

6. Audio and video interfaces and connectors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_and_video_interfaces...

   Selection of one over the other rests mainly on the availability of appropriate connectors on the chosen equipment and the preference and convenience of the user. Connections longer than 6 meters or so, or those requiring tight bends, should use coaxial cable, since the high light signal attenuation of TOSLINK cables limits its effective range.

7. Y-cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-cable

   A Shure FP24 preamp's mono XLR line outputs connected to an Edirol R-09 recorder's 3.5mm stereo jack line input, using a Y-cable. This is an example of consolidating connectors, as described below. A Y-cable, Y cable, or splitter cable is a cable with three ends: one common end and two other ends. The Y-cable can resemble the Latin letter "Y".

8. Bi-wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-wiring

   Critics of bi-wiring believe that both ways of making speaker connections are electrically equivalent (assuming no difference in speaker cable resistance), and thus cynically refer to the practice as "buy-wiring", implying it is nothing more than a marketing gimmick for buying more pairs of speaker wires. [4]

9. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

   The 1915 textbook Practical Electric Wiring describes the construction of the Western Union splice; short tie and long tie. The short tie splice has it being formed after stripping the insulation from a pair of wires for several inches, each, crossing the wires left over right as shown in figure part A; then, a hooked cross (figure part B) is formed holding the crossing point of the two wires ...
