Hey guys, I'm trying to make my first RCA cables using the highly recommended Belden 1505F wire. My question is, I understand how to make RCA cables with something like starquad (use white for signal let's say, and then blue for the ground). But in the 1505F wire, there's only one signal wire, but what do I use for the ground? Perhaps I can use the metal braid on the outside as the ground? I am just a little lost, so any help would be great! Thanks.

In a coaxial cable you use the center as positive and the shielding as the return...
