Extending speaker wire?


Hi all,

I have a set of speaker cables, unterminated, that are not quite long enough for the intended purpose. I have another, shorter set of the same cable lying around as well. Is it ok to simply braid or solder these cables together, creating a longer run of cable? It seems to good to be true, but I thought I'd ask the experts.

Thanks!

Agree with the above, as I've done it myself. There has been a lot of buzz about YARDMASTER GREEN outdoor power cord, with the end cut off and then used as speaker cable. A giant killer at a rediculously low price. You may want to try this. I am sure that other colors would work as well. Happy Listening.
