FAQs

What is this cable used for?

This cable is used for connecting stereo audio sources, such as CD players or DVD players, to audio amplifiers or Hi-Fi systems.

What does 'gold plated' mean for the connectors?

Gold plating on the connectors helps to ensure a better electrical connection, reduce corrosion, and maintain signal integrity for clearer audio.

What is the length of the cable?

The cable is 1 meter (approximately 3.3 feet) long.

Can I use this cable for video signals?

No, this cable is specifically designed for stereo audio signals and is not suitable for transmitting video.

Is this cable suitable for surround sound systems?

No, this is a stereo audio cable and is only suitable for left and right channel audio, not multi-channel surround sound.

What does RoHS compliance mean?

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance means the product adheres to restrictions on specific hazardous materials used in electrical and electronic equipment, indicating it meets certain environmental standards.

How do I connect the cable?

Plug the two RCA connectors on one end into the 'Audio Out' ports of your source device, and the two RCA connectors on the other end into the 'Audio In' ports of your amplifier or receiver, ensuring red goes to R and white/black goes to L.

Troubleshooting

No sound or intermittent audio

Ensure the RCA connectors are fully inserted into both the source and destination devices. Check that the cable is connected to the correct 'Audio Out' ports on the source and 'Audio In' ports on the destination. Test with a different audio cable or different devices if possible.

Humming or buzzing noise

Verify that the audio cable is not running parallel to power cables. Ensure all connected devices are properly grounded. Check for any damage to the cable or connectors.

Only one channel (left or right) is working

Confirm that the red (Right) and white/black (Left) connectors are plugged into the corresponding R and L ports on both devices. Inspect the connectors for any debris or damage that might be blocking the signal on one channel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality audio signal transmission due to gold-plated connectors.
  • Robust and durable construction for reliable use.
  • Wide compatibility with standard audio equipment.
  • Simple plug-and-play setup.

Cons

  • Fixed 1-meter length may be too short for some setups.
  • Limited to stereo audio; not suitable for multi-channel surround sound.
  • Black cable color might not match all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the L (Left) and R (Right) audio output ports on your source device (e.g., CD player, TV).
  2. Identify the corresponding L (Left) and R (Right) audio input ports on your destination device (e.g., amplifier, soundbar).
  3. Plug the red RCA connector into the R (Right) port and the white or black RCA connector into the L (Left) port on both devices.
  4. Ensure a firm connection by gently pushing the plugs into their respective sockets.

Compatibility:

The Kenable 002043 features standard RCA (phono) connectors, making it compatible with a wide range of audio equipment that uses this connection type. This includes amplifiers, receivers, CD players, DVD players, turntables, soundbars, and most home audio systems.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the cable and connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners, especially on the gold-plated contacts, to prevent damage or corrosion.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the cable in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling the cable, which can stress the internal wires.
  • Handling: Avoid pulling the cable by the wire; always grasp the connectors when plugging or unplugging.
