Heh, it will work... by why? If your using a peice of equipment that will require you to use RCA out's instead of a wire terminals where you can screw them/ clip them down, it is not designed to do what your wanting it to do.

Resistance is dependent on load/size/connection. If your expecting to run 50+watts through RCA cables, then you cannot expect good performance. About the only way you could ever get it to handle any ammount of wattage would be to buy solder in RCA's, and solder in your 12-14 gauge+ speaker wire.... but still doesent make it right... what are you using that has RCA outputs on it? most times, the RCA output is intended for hooking up another amp and carries very little wattage

Just MHO
