Excellent Speaker Cable, used for Back Rear Speakers on Atmos Surround Sound Setup. It replaced QED Silver Anniversary Cable and to be honest, there is no difference in the Sound. The QED Cable was way more expensive when i bought it in 2008 and it's still expensive. Don't let Audio Buffs, Audio Shop Assistants or Online Reviews string you along, it's all Snake Oil. Save your money and buy this Cable, plus it's easier to manage, as it's not so thick. You can't go wrong at this price.

I've been gradually putting a HiFi system together with simple brief of good sound - don't break the bank. I have achieved this through buying used kit and some new old stock items. This cable fits well into my design brief as it is cheap, but works well. The cable is easy to cut and strip. It is not prone to twisting or tangling. It's quite thick so you will need to give thought to running in a non obvious manner (especially if bi-wiring) I'd like to talk about speaker wire in general. It's easy to fall in to the "more expensive wire is better for sound mindset" - especially if you seek advice from HiFi Bores. Now while more expensive wire MAY improve sound quality, you need to offset that against how much. Most people will be listening in an audio imperfect room - it will have hard surfaces, furniture, dogs and so on in it. Going for an expensive wire in a home environment may not give you a noticeable improvement, So don't worry that this wire is "cheap" it works well, is easy to work with.

I bought this 16-Gauge Speaker Wire (100 feet) to hook up my home theater system, and I’m really impressed with the quality. I wasn’t expecting much at first, but after working with it, I’m glad I chose this wire. The 16-gauge thickness is perfect for running to my bookshelf speakers and subwoofer. It’s not too thin, so I don’t lose sound quality over longer distances, but it’s still flexible enough to route through tight spaces without any hassle. I was running this wire across a few rooms, and the 30.48 meters (100 feet) was more than enough to cover the whole setup. The copper strands are nicely packed, which helps with conductivity. I didn’t notice any drop in audio quality, and my sound system is now booming with crystal-clear sound. The bronze color is also a nice touch. It blends in well with my wood flooring, so it doesn’t stand out or look messy, which is a small but appreciated detail. Another thing I appreciated was how easy it was to strip the wire and connect it to the speakers. Some speaker wires can be a pain, but this one didn’t give me any trouble. It’s sturdy but still easy to work with, making installation a breeze. Overall, this wire does exactly what it’s supposed to. If you’re looking for a solid speaker wire that’s affordable, reliable, and gives you great sound quality, I highly recommend this one. It was just what I needed for my setup, and I’ll definitely buy it again if I need more! **Pros:** - Great quality, no signal loss - Flexible and easy to work with - Good length (100 feet) - Bronze color blends in nicely - Affordable for the quality **Cons:** - None so far, it worked perfectly for my needs. - yes one actually hence the 4 stars: delivery date has been postponed 10 times and it took 2 months to receive the product. Probably supply chain problem. **Final Verdict:** A solid choice for anyone looking to wire up their sound system without breaking the bank. Highly recommend!

Reviewed Sept 2024: Cable quality is a bit subjective, I've read articles in hifi magazines where cable costing £100 a metre is reviewed.. Personally, I take the approach that a heavy(ish) gauge that has a copper core has to be pretty decent. I bought this for hooking up rear speakers in my vehicle, and I this was a very good price with the convenience of Amazon. Ironically before I could use it, I was having a sort out, and I found a few lengths of speaker cable that probably would have done the job, but I decided to use this stuff anyhow. If you are used to the stock 'doorbell wire' cable for speakers, you may be in for a surprise because 16 gauge is quite thick, so if you are trying to thread it through or into tight spaces, this might need to be considered. In my case, I knew I had to pull out parts of the dashboard and drop the head lining, and using a cable threader, it was all good. The thicker core might also mean something in regards to what you're connecting the cable to.. If you're using a regular stereo and speakers, you're probably using banana plugs, so not an issue, but if you're connecting to car speakers and stereo, you might need to think through how you're going to do that. (I'm soldering as much as I can, but if you're planning on using the screw/block type connectors would probably need to be a bit bigger). Once connected, does the better gauge make a difference? I'm not sure, but it sure makes me feel better using it. This is the first time I've used the Amazon branded stuff, last time I bought a spool off evil pay, and it was fine, just took 2 weeks to arrive. I'd be looking at this stuff next time I need some.

Amazon offered this to me for just £4.63 around the time when I added a Fosi mini amplifier and some small cheap Pyle speakers to my basket, and I`m so glad I bought it when I did, cos I see that the usual price for this stuff is over £13. I`m not an audiophile, but I`ve previously only ever used standard small gauge basic general purpose speaker cable (like what you would use for door-bell wire, though not one solid core), so this was a significant upgrade for me, and it was so thick that it would barely fit in the holes of the brass contacts of my new Fosi BT200A Pro. I wouldh`ve begrudged having to shell out £13 for it, but even if you do have to pay that price for it, it would be worth it, as it is very good quality, well, it is at in my book anyway.

Another great AmazonBasics product. These really make a difference! I was looking for a high quality speaker wire to set up my new 5.1 system - so obviously you want something that enhances the sounds rather than limits it. The packaging is super effective, see the pictures. Easy to open and to handle. The wire itself is easy to work with, it is soft enough to go round edges. The plastic cover is quite easy to strip down with a knife so you can work with the wire underneath and connect it to your speakers. 30m or 100ft is really enough - at least for me and my circa 20m2 lounge for 5 speakers. And most important - the sounds is really amazing. It depends on your system of course, but these wires seem to send the sound straight through without punching it down in terms of less bass etc. A rich, voluminous sounds. Get this if you want a decent, high quality speaker wire for a really good price. Nothing to lose really! Hope you enjoyed my review.

This is the second cable reel of this speaker cable that I have bought. In my view it is all that is required for all but top-end systems, being very economical, fine sounding and with sufficient cross-sectional area of copper conductors to make it suitable for reasonably long runs of cable if required. I use it primarily for systems of good quality second hand vinyl based systems that I put together for familly and friends and have had no complaints about sound quality. My only gripe would be that the polarity marking on the cables, so that it is easy to ensure that the two speakers are connected in phase, is hard to spot, paricularly in low light. I have only used the cable for stereo systems, but it should be suitable for surround sound systems and would save tens of pounds over more revered cables in such systems.

Cavo non professionale per altoparlanti, rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo! Imballo accurato e arrivato subito come sempre.

Hier kan nu weinig fout mee gebeuren. Goede bescherming van het koper. Netjes opgerold op een haspel. Snel geleverd. 👍

コスパ良い。この量でこのお値段は有り難い。

Great performing speaker wire that is hundred percent copper

Used it to extend my sony sa-d100 speakers. Gauge is much thick, compared to the wires used, so you have to increase the hole in the speaker back, or cut the existing wire in between and extend. Overall the wire quality is good, and I didn't find a better wire for speakers. Maybe I could have looked for smaller guage. Soldered the wire in speakers and joined the other part with the existing wire. Do not think of placing it in connector, it won't fit. Sound is great, didn't notice a y distortion.
