Thanks for replying.
Just a side note - Connectors have characteristic impedance also, not just cables. You just don't hear about it much. But you can buy for instance 75 or 52 ohm BNC, Different impedance F connectors, etc. Not sure about the RCA, I would have to look it up. But the "normal" RCA is 75 ohms.

But make sure your midi-chlorian count is high enough first or you may end up with a damaged blood vessel in your brain from straining so hard.
