If this is still available..., get it! They are way over-sized for 12 gauge. I bought the others and they are really nice and well worth $1/ft!
Inexpensive speaker cables: any experience?
I’m currently running some entry Kimber Kable speaker cables and looking at possibly upgrading. In my research I’ve come across some “budget” options on eBay. I assume they’re not great but curious if anyone has any experience with some “no-name” or “budget” cables?
Thoughts on these?
Thanks!

@foggyus91 So what? Can't see anything funny about it, or perhaps you know something that has made this thread obsolete ;-) |
yes, old thread, but, let's cap it off. lol. If you are looking for more bass and thump, I went from 12 feet of 10 gauge per "speaker" (total 2 connections) "Signal cables" to 7 gauge per each "connection" using "Worlds best Cables" and I defintely got more bass and more thump - this is like 4 gauge of copper per "speaker" - total of 2 connections. These are OFC cables, made in Taiwan, and not OCC, but, I like them way better than the "Signal Cable" speaker cables I was using. They are cheap and you can get them on Amazon, with an easy return if you do not like them. It is pretty amazing how much copper is in these cables. Each 12 foot cable weighs over 4.2 pounds compared to 1.5 pounds for the signal cable speaker cable. They are also almost 1 inch in diameter, so, keep that in mind. If you like bass, or are looking for more bass, you can easily try these out. Note: My system is posted under my profile This is what I bought on Amazon - "WORLDS BEST CABLES 12 Foot Ultimate - 7 AWG - Ultra-Pure OFC – Extra Premium Audiophile HiFi Speaker Cable Pair with Eminence Gold Banana (x2) & Spade (x2) Plugs & Carbon Tweed Jacket". Of course they have different listings for various lengths and various connections. I was shocked how much better my speakers sounded - more full, more bass, more punch.
