I currently have a single wire (with RCA connectors) running from my sub to the receiver.I now need to move the sub and run a wire through the ceiling/wall about 50-60 feet away.What kind of wire do I need to buy and does anyone know good places to get it?Thanks in advance for your help.

    I bought a couple of 35 ft runs from here at a reasonable price. They seem to be doing the trick..

    You can also make your own if cost is a real concern and you are comfortable soldering.

    Belden coax and RCA terminations are available at most RS's and electronics stores.

    if coax is going to be used then use a F connect then a F to RCA adapter.
