[QUOTE="Jason Glass, post: 124299, member: 2167"] Re: Cable for paddles RG-6 is the wrong cable for the job, especially for more than just a few feet of length. It has the wrong impedance (75Ω) for mic and IEM systems (50Ω), and comparatively high loss. It is not designed for repeated deployment and recoiling, and is more susceptible to repeated-flex related failures due to its copper-clad steel center conductor. Some people claim that an impedance mismatch of 25Ω has minimal effect. I partially disagree with that, and think it's unwise mess around with less than optimal setups when it's so easy to do it right. [/QUOTE]
