    Just ordered a set... jeepers, the peer pressure. You guys would put Mrs Doyle to shame: "Go on, go on, go on, go on."

    Just finished my monoblock gain clones, so these cables will do nicely.

    DIY is fine and dandy, but just try selling it on!

    If they were 2.5mm^2 or more then good news
    I don't think you should get too het up over the CSA aspect Mark as some of the best speaker cables I have ever heard could barely muster 0.6mm

    Any road up, I have bought a set that Tim showed a picture of in the first post, so will give my verdict when they arrive.

    I cannot seem to locate the 14awg cables. mainly because there is too much flowery marketing and not enough technical info in the adverts I have seen. Has anyone tried the 15awg flat cable?

    it sounds exceptional to me, it's another belkin bargain to add to the list.

    I guess it depends on the cable run, IE how long it is & if there is a passive crossover after it Frank I prefer a thicker cable feeding my bass drivers simply because the amplifier will have more control over the cone due to an increase in damping factor with thicker cables.

    I agree it may not matter with most passive speakers, but as i design my own & invariably the bass driver is directly driven from a power amp I like to keep loop resistance to a minimum That way i get the predicted driver response.
    Bests, Mark

    Wow - came this morning (ordered at the weekend) and another belting Belkin bargain by the looks of them... I wonder how much these were retailing at originally? Shame they're too short for my main set up, but I couldn't be left out at that price!

    So did mine -- Holy moley these are chunky cables. Cannot try them yet as I'm at work and there is no hi-fi to hook em up to...

    think they sold for £80-£90 originally, the packaging is something else, takes ages to get them out!
