Posted on April 4, 2025 by RLC Cables Team

Hey gamers, streamers, and DIY enthusiasts! If you’re looking to take your gaming setup to the next level in 2025, you’ve probably already got the RGB lights, ergonomic chair, and a killer monitor. But have you thought about your audio? Whether you’re grinding in Call of Duty, streaming on Twitch, or chatting with your squad on Discord, crystal-clear audio can make or break your experience. At RLC Cables, we’re all about helping you create a setup that’s as epic as your gameplay—with custom audio cables that deliver top-notch sound and a vibe that matches your style. Let’s dive into how you can upgrade your gaming rig with our cables and some easy DIY tips!

Why Audio Matters for Gaming in 2025

Gaming isn’t just about visuals anymore—audio is where the magic happens. With spatial audio becoming a standard in games like Fortnite and Apex Legends, you need to hear every footstep, explosion, and callout to stay ahead. Plus, if you’re streaming or creating content, your audience expects pro-level sound quality. A recent report from TechRadar (March 29, 2025) highlighted that 68% of Gen Z gamers prioritize audio quality in their setups, and low-quality cables can lead to static, lag, or even dropped signals. That’s where custom audio cables come in—they’re your secret weapon for immersive sound and a clean, aesthetic setup.

Step 1: Upgrade Your Headset Cable with Mogami W2524

Most gaming headsets come with flimsy stock cables that wear out fast and pick up interference (you know, that annoying buzz when your mic is on). Swap it out for a custom cable made with our Mogami W2524 bulk wire. This wire is a fave among musicians for its low-noise performance—98% spiral shielding means no static, just pure sound. Whether you’re using a HyperX, SteelSeries, or Razer headset, a Mogami W2524 cable can handle the demands of gaming audio.

DIY Tip: Building your own headset cable is easier than you think! Grab some Mogami W2524, a 3.5mm TRS connector (check your headset’s requirements), and follow our guide on —the steps are similar. Solder the connector, test it with your headset, and boom—you’ve got a pro-grade cable that’ll make your squad jealous.

Step 2: Add Style with TechFlex Expandable Braiding

Younger gamers love a setup that looks as good as it performs—think TikTok-worthy aesthetics with RGB vibes. That’s where TechFlex expandable braiding comes in. Available in colors like neon red, electric blue, and sleek black, TechFlex lets you wrap your cables for a clean, custom look while protecting them from wear and tear. Imagine your headset cable in a vibrant red braid, matching your LED lights—it’s a total flex!

How to Do It: Cut the TechFlex to the length of your cable, slide it over, and secure the ends with heat shrink tubing (or even some cool electrical tape for a budget hack). It’s a quick 10-minute project that’ll make your setup pop. Check out our TechFlex 1/4" expandable braiding in the to get started.

Step 3: Power Your Setup with Reliable Cables

If you’ve got a multi-monitor setup, a beefy PC, or a console like the PS5 Pro (which just got a price drop, according to IGN, April 2, 2025), you need power cables that can keep up. Cheap power cables can overheat or fail, risking your gear. Our power cables are built to handle high loads, whether you’re powering a gaming PC, a streaming setup, or even a portable solar charger for on-the-go gaming at LAN parties.

Pro Tip: Organize your power cables with TechFlex braiding to avoid a messy cable jungle behind your desk. A clean setup = better airflow = cooler temps for your rig.

Step 4: Stream Like a Pro with Clean Audio

If you’re a streamer or content creator, your audio quality is everything. Background noise or static can turn off viewers faster than a laggy stream. Use a custom Mogami W2524 cable for your mic (like the Shure SM7B, a Gen Z streaming fave) to ensure your voice comes through crisp and clear. Pair it with a coax cable for your camera setup—our RLC Cables Coax Jumper Wires with PPC tri-shield bulk wire are perfect for stable video signals.

Streamer Hack: If you’re using a USB mic, consider a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter with a Mogami cable for better sound quality. It’s a small tweak that makes a big difference on stream.

Step 5: Stay Sustainable While You Game

Gen Z and Millennials care about the planet—72% of them prefer brands with sustainable practices, according to a 2025 sustainability report (Forbes, March 15, 2025). At RLC Cables, we’re working on eco-friendly options, like recyclable insulation for our cables, so you can game guilt-free. Plus, our durable cables last longer, reducing waste compared to cheap, throwaway ones.
