Newbie Question: What RCA cable to buy for Receiver -> AMP

[Gizmo99]

Sorry guys, all this Audio / Video stuff is new to me.

The back of my receiver:

The back of the Adcom Amp

Someone recommended these:

But the Adcom only takes ONE input. So what cable do I need to buy?

again, sorry for this newbie question :)

I don't understand,, the adcom has three inputs,,does it nor,,I'm assuming L,R, and csnter..so if you go 2 ch out on the receiver,one would go to the right and one to the left. And one one go th the center,if you have the output on the receiver for it.Good luck, and I;m not sure that your question was answered.

I understand what you are saying george, I just need the type of wire that go from Yellow/White on yamaha -> one input on adcom

[george daniel]

would a "y" from the yammie to adcom(rca) do it?

That should help. Use an RCA cable from the PREOUT section labeled CENTER, FRONT L(white), FRONT R(red) to the 3 channels on your adcom. There is no need for yellow video cables, no need for Y adapters, plain old RCA cables will do the trick. Problem solved.

I hope that picture is clear enough. :D

I dunno man. I had two white wires connecting L and R from a preamp to amp, and I SWEAR when I switched the R wire out with a Red one to match the color of the jack it sound soooo much better.

You know, the white cables have the copper molecule's electrons aligned to the left, and the red ones have them aligned to the right. Totally opened up the soundstage!
