If you looking for some cheap (good/reasonable quality?) speaker cable, this may be of interest:

High quality flexible speaker cable in transparent sheath. Stranded OFC conductors. Red polarity indicators. Supplied on 100Mtr roll.

I've just ordered 100m; never used them before so can't comment on service etc.. Also ordered some gold-plated banana plugs for 80p each.

what did u get charged on ur card m8 ?

 

[jmac]

coosts 15 buks to get it sent to my area thas way to much, works out at over 55 quid with there cockup so if they see they made a cock up and add more thats over 60 bucks...

i found the same stuff else where and got it for 50 including free next day deliver

 

[WoodyAllen]

Charged 37.75 + 10 delivery. Cable arrived yesterday: 'looks' good (don't know what is sounds like yet; will hook-up later today). 2x326x0.1mm conductors. Looks like Gale XL315 except the 3mm spacer is absent between the 2 conductors.

Good find: I like free delivery; what's the web-link?

good site for future ref, thanks. Exact same cable by the way. I wired the 5.1 system up last night; definately a different sound from the cabletalk 3 but I put this down to changing speaker arrangements (closer to wall; more bass). Can't complain for the price...

How guys,

Just wondering if you guys would have any spare?
I'm looking for probably around 10-20m of the 2.5mm stuff,but obviously wouldn't need 100m of it!

Cheers,

Cheng

 

[jmac]

you cab buy it by the metre from the site in the link i pasted

cheers

 

[Cheng]

Yeah I suppose, but wouldn't you guys have some spare, if you've bought 100m ? Cos then it would be like 50p a metre, rather than £1.25! And ridding you guys of any spare cable that you don't need!

 

[jmac]
