Best Answer

RCA connectors for automobiles...

Advantages

Cheap cables and connectors

Reliable if not connected/disconnected a lot

Vibration resistant

Commonly available

Small and discreet

Disadvantages

Not designed for many connect/disconnect cycles

Unbalanced signal isn't as noise-canceling as balanced wiring

Fragile connectors, especially disconnected male plugs

Not the easiest connectors to attach to cables (not the most difficult either)

Not safe for hot disconnect (the ground may detach before the hot lead).

Even gold-plated RCA connectors aren't as cool (or as expensive) as pro audio or mil-spec connectors for show cars

in automotive use, they aren't connected or disconnected often, or when operational, they aren't exposed, cables aren't usually made or repaired by hand, so most of the disadvantages are irrelevant.

How do you get lights to track with sound on stage?

To get stage lights to flash or change in time to music, first of all you need you lighting controller to support this function. If you are using PC software to create a show, then you most likely can do this, as most computers have a microphone or line in jack, which could easily analyse audio signals. If you are using a conventional lighting console, look through the instructions to find steps to achieve this, or you can look on the back of the console for an RCA jack designed for audio input. If you have all this, the next step is to start designing chases, which is what is used to make lights track to music on stage. Follow this link to another answer that I recently wrote explaining what a chase is in stage and theatre lighting:


What would happen if you didn't have the kinescope in your TV's?

If I understand this correctly(Kinescope) is a registered trademark of RCA. It refers to the picture tube and also, incorrectly, to Video-tape transcripts of a Program. Quite simply it would not work(Plasma flat screen sets use a different process0-The Kinescope is the picture tube, in layman"s language, also Image Orthicon Quite simply it would not work, the Kinescope is the Picture tube. The term is a Registered trade mark of RCA, but has become generic like Kleenex or Levis. The term Kinescope is popularily if incorrectly applied to a video-taped transcript of a program,but this is a secondary meaning. Modern Plasma video equipment has a glat screen and uses a different process. Quite simply it would not work, the Kinescope is the Picture tube.

Your TVs cable connector broke is there anyway to hook up cable to your tv using rca jacks from the cable box to the tv?

If your TV has rca input jacks for video games, etc. then all you need is to connect to the output rca connection on the cable box and you are good. Just remember that you won't have to tune the TV to get the channels. You will have to use A/V mode all the time to watch your favorite shows.
