Hi,

There are other threads here about this subject,

BUT

This document provides the most accurate information on just about any kind of cable you might want to make:

Sound System Interconnection from RANE.

Good luck!

I'm trying to solder raw speaker cable to an XLR-F connector. In a more general sense, I'm trying to connect a Rotel Stereo Control Amp (with XLR outputs) to a pair of speakers...

The old standard we used was Pin 1 = (-) and Pin 3 = (+).

You should look on the back panel or a manual for that amp, though.
