Im running a Clarion EQS746 that says it has 7 volt RCA outputs. I had to use 12ft RCA cables to run my system but I think I found a way to run 6ft cables, Im sure it would make a difference if I was running the deck straight to the amps but since its going through the EQ with the extra voltage would changeing the length really make a difference?

very minor difference. obviously shorter is better, but you should be fine.

i would add a audiocontrol line driver..

Myke, I had kind of the same question. Should I run mu line driver + my clarion EQ? If so do you put in in before or after the EQ? Before would help all the signals as it's a single input EQ if I put it after I would have to choose which line to put it on. I pulled the LD out when I added the EQ.............

im not to sure what your trying to accomplish. why do you need a eq ? is it for a volume control ? <BR> <BR>generally speaking - run the audiocontrol line driver out of the head unit since most head units cant run low impedence signals (this is the other 1/2 of the equation).

you can make custom rcas with some rg59 copper and connectors. That way is it to the exact length, and the shielding is great on rg59. <BR> <BR>Or you can buy some Planet Waves cable and the connectors and make some flexible interconnects as well. <BR> <BR>But generally no you wont see a difference at all, the length is minor, and since its in the open it wont matter.
