Short sub cable needed

Hi guys,

I am after a 0.75m or 1m sub cable to connect my Kef 1005 sub to my amp.

As it only provides the 'rumble', do I need to spend mega money or will I get away with a half decent one for a tenner or under ???

I have most of my other cables sorted but am struggling to find a reasonably well reviewed sub cable.

Please help !!!!

Cheers, Jobby.

Re: Short sub cable needed

Take a look at the powerbuy above, there are a few retailers on there that will make cables to specific lengths. I've got some excellent cables made to specific lengths in the past on there. I also recently got some analogue cables from bluejeanscables so can recommend them in addition to the guys in the powerbuy. I did have to pay import duty but it worked out cheap and the cables are excellent quality and delivery was quick. They should be able to knock up a short cable for you.

Re: Short sub cable needed

will recommend bluejeans cables as well. just got a short sub cable from them as well and it is very well made. in ireland but didn't ahve to pay customs, and our laws are as stringent as your with values i think. one cable shouldn't put you over the limit. well worth checking out.
