Hi. Following a recent thread posted on the Beresford forum I now need a new Digital coax lead. Am going to order a Mark Grant one as above, but before I do does anyone have one (or something similar) they are looking to move on?
cheers

Would a Kimber lead designed for a TV aerial do ?

About the same as a bit of cheap coax from B&Q maybe?

Mike, it might do. What cable is it and what connectors does it have?
Geoff, others have suggested that and I have some coax cable in the garage, but i'm not sure i have the soldering skill to add the connectors!!!

Most TV aerial coax plugs are non solder fitting. You just strip the wire back a bit, pull the screen braid back, slip the gripper over it, leaving a few milimeters of insulation, pop the core wire into the tubular front pin holder, place the outer front piece on and tighten it all together by hand.

Thanks Geoff, but I need to fit RCA connectors to each end of 75ohm coax cable and from what I have read these are best soldered.

Thanks Jerry, but I need RCA to RCA to go from my Bushmaster to Pioneer N50.

He wants £30 for a used one when you can buy a 1m NEW one from Mark Grant direct for £27.50.. or am I missing something?

Simon I may have a Mark Grant Oyaide FTVS-510 pure silver digital coax, fitted with WBT 0110 Ag (silver) plugs, up for sale soon, if you are interested
The Oyaide is a truly superb cable.. mine measures 89cm tip-to-tip.. These cables are the best that Mark Grant sells as a digi coax
Here is the Mark Grant link to this amazing cable: http://markgrantcables.co.uk/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=40_3&products_id=367

Thanks and looks good but I think it is going to be more than I'm looking to pay right now.

No problem Simon but I would say that all Mark Grant cables are very good so the G1000HD would be very highly recommended by me, you won't be disappointed by anything supplied by Mark ;)

This looks OK. Belden is always good cable.
