Default Low capacitance audio coax

I need to send an audio signal from a 50K ohm source over a distance of
a couple of feet in a screened cable. However, most audio coax seems to
be about 100pF/ft so 2ft of this and 50K will turn over just below
16KHz. So, anyone know a source of low capacitance audio coax?


Those sort of output impedances were common in valve days. Use a video or
RF coax to your requirements. Maplin sell a range by the metre.


I keep forgetting about Maplin. I checked their catalogue and they have
an AV coax by Shark that is only 65pF/metre.

Thanks Dave
