Pete D Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I want to whip up a few BDS cables (Remote audio BDS to Lectro SR) for my bag rig and I have a lot of Redco TGS-01 on hand (it's my go to for small audio cables). Is there a compelling reason not to use it for this application? I figure if I just trim back the shield/drain wire and use only the red and white wires inside it should be fine. Does using a shielded cable present unnecessary risk? What's your go to cable for making BDS cables? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandering Ear Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Conductor size is the only reason you might want a different cable. Tgs-01 is a 26 guage conductor, which honestly will work fine for short run low power uses, a heavier guage cable may be a good idea if your power draw out lengths increase. Using a shielded wire won't make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
