16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
Someone posted a question in the cable sections about some 18 AWG Belkin speaker cable from Dell. I suggested 16 AWG as a min for his speakers. He suggested this 16 AWG instead:
http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna...1&sku=A1209227
30.5m of Belkin 16 AWG cable with 4 banana plugs.
£6.64 incl fee shipping. 
Buy two of these and double up for 30.5m of 2.6 sq mm cable. That works out at 43.5p per meter for 2.6 sq mm speaker cable and 8 banana plugs! Can't be bad!

Re: 16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
apparently the delivery isnt quite as free as it first appears! the total for two lots of this is £26.20, which is still a bit of a bargain, but just less so!

Re: 16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
I rang the customer service department up, it looks like the discount was removed on my order somehow. I have cancelled it and replaced the order, which has gone through perfectly for £13, strange!
Cheers for this Mr.Incredible, it sure is one good deal! I have only just re cabled my system courtesy of Mr.Grant, but this would be good to have incase needed.

Re: 16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
I've just looked again and most of the prices have risen, although when added to the basket they appear to be the same as before (but no free shipping now!).

Re: 16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
It makes me think they had had a wrong price in the first place. Oh well.

Re: 16 AWG (1.3 sqmm) Belkin Speaker cable
Really? Usually a wrong expiry date shows up as you submit and order and won't be accepted unless the expiry date entered is actually correct.
