Wedding DJ Gear #3 - Cables

There are a number of things every wedding DJ must have, like microphones and turntables. But on a more basic level, you've got to have good quality cables. Cables transfer the power to your speakers and the audio signals from your equipment so it's important to have high quality, top of the line cables.



Of course, having cables isn't enough. You've got to know how to use them. Which cables to use for which speakers and which ones you can chain and which ones you shouldn't. And of course, you need to have extras (every good dj will have backups of all equipment, including cables).
