Cheap 10 AWG Speaker Cable
Hi guys, found this on ebay 'Car amp wiring: OFC Earth Cable 6mm2 10 AWG'. £1.97 per metre. It makes a great speaker cable and is quite a bit cheaper than the Blue Jeans Cable. I ordered 16 metres for my system and it came to just over £20 with free postage from the uk. It sounds wonderful.

That's the stuff Mike, sorry for my late reply. It's the best cable cable I've heard in my system and I've tried all sorts. There's some good cable articles on the audioholics website that makes for interesting reading http://www.audioholics.com/education...er-cable-gauge
If it doesn't sound good you can always tow your car with it
Steve.
