Not sure, I guess in the past I never really had a need to other than setting up outlets for cable/dish. Thanks John, I will probably do like your saying. I also see Parts Express has a more expensive gold adapter with F Male/RCA Female which would thread onto the wall plates and then I could use standard RCA/RCA cables. I will way the pros/cons and hopefully will be enjoying the new setup asap. Drywall install in the next week, fun fun.

update - I did find some regular wall plates with f/RCA insert, so should be good to go... Yeah, not looking forward to the mudding/texturing. Will have to really try to plastic things off in the rest of the basement, yuck. Why can't you buy sheets that are already textured, just apply paint.

Randy, could you please provide me with a link. If I'm not mistaken, I'm looking for the same thing.

Thanks

I actually found some at a local home improvement store called Menards (similar to Home Depot or Lowes). They basically are a modular plug-in type setup where you get a wall plate with 1,2,4 or 6 square ports, then just plug in the keystone connector you want. I think Leviton or Legrand are brands to look for...

Yeah, I used them for my surround speakers as well, they offer Gold Banana/Screw connectors as well.

Hey Cam, I have used those as well - my local Home Depot carries them. I would guess yours will as well since we're in the same province, stock items should be quite similar.

They actually make a nice neat way of providing network access points for your Cat5/6 network cabling.

For some reason at our Home Depot I could not find the F/RCA connectors, but Menards had a similar brand from Pass Legrand that was the same thing.
