I will be recieving my first amp amp next week.
I have done some searching.the amp requires rca jacks.
The ones i find are all single with 2 ends on each side
are these good.since my amp is 5 channel i would need 3 sets and 1 jack will not be used or is this all wrong.
Someone please guide me
Tks.

The cables you're talking about are the ones that come free many pieces of equipment. I cable with a red and white RCA on each end? They will work, and it'd be ok to leave one dangling unused, but you're probably going to want to invest in some better cables. Those aren't going to do any amp justice.

Do a search on this forum and you'll get more than your share of recommendations.

X77, yes you've got the right idea; any coaxial cable with an RCA plug on each end works fine. You can use five single cables(they're certainly available), three double cables with one left over, a triple cable plus a double cable, etc.
