DIY cat 6 FEP "TEFLON"


I have made a 8ft pair of speaker cables using Chris of VH Audio's method. I used Teflon insulated cat 6 which has a solid copper conductor that is a little thicker 23awg than cat 5(24awg). What I did different was use only one color for all 27 pairs on both speakers. I chose the brown pair because it has the tighter twist(more copper). I did not want there to be any issues about "Time Smearing" using cable that has different twist in them. Has anyone else done there DIY cat 5 or 6 cables this way? I believe this my be the best way to get the most out of DIY Teflon cat 5 or cat 6 speaker cable. BTW I did separate the other 3 pairs in the cable. I just have not started any more braiding.
