Default RCA cables

yes but when someone refers to "out of phase" most people assume 180.


Never ASSume anything.

Thats the
point. If thier is a phase reverse switch on some component and it is not
labeled then what degree do you assume? 180.


I never assume anything. However, experience tells me that it'll be 90
degrees, not 180. What's the point in changing your bass 180 degrees?
It'll destroy your sound by cancelling out at the frequencies where your
subs overlap with your highs.

Some phase switches don't even have a specific phase. I had a crossover
once upon a time that had "vPhase". The degree of phase was shifted
according to the crossover point the crossover is set at.

And how often is induced noise a problem in car audio? Not alot in my
experience. Were talking less than a 20ft run anyway. And were not talking
about massive power sources, So I still think that twisted cables are not any
better.


I mentioned this in another post. Most noise problems are because of
damaged equipment, or more commonly, poor installation.
