Great quality speaker cable - thick conductive copper flex, just right for my older wired monitor speakers.

Great quality speaker cable strong and easy to strip and fit.Sound quality very good

I am not a cable nerd but this seems fine, sounds nice with my setup (90s Denon amp, Tannoy bookshelf speakers). Nice and heavy cable, with lots of tiny thin copper threads inside which are a bit fiddly to connect up but presumably make for a good connection.Not suitable for use without banana plugs or similar.. trying to just screw the cable directly onto posts is a pain in the bum.

I was originally going to extend the existing speaker cables to suit my new hifi and speakers but, after buying 2m of 42-strand cable on eBay for 99p/metre and finding it was only a short step up from bell wire (it looked much thicker in the picture!), I decided to scrap all the cables and start again with this 216-strand cable. On arrival, I was impressed at how thick it was.Initially, I was concerned about one review saying it consisted of copper-plated steel. In my many years of experience with electrical appliances, I have never come across copper-plated steel cable being used for wiring, so I treated this review as being somewhat dubious. I am not sure how the reviewer came to this conclusion but I have stripped the insulation from a small part of the cable and applied a strong magnet. The cores are not in the slightest bit magnetic. The only steel that is non-magnetic is austenitic stainless steel. It would be difficult to extrude this down to the very fine core size in this cable and would probably be more expensive than the copper it was attempting to replace, hence I think we can dismiss the claim that the cable has a steel core. This is definitely copper cable. It is not claimed to be oxygen-free but, personally, I doubt if the average hifi owner would be able to tell the difference between similar cables with one OFC and the other not. I also have my doubts about the cable making a real, noticeable improvement in the reproduction to someone with average ears, unless possibly used to replace very thin bell wire. However, as I am using this cable for a new hifi setup (Denon DF109DABC + Dali Zensor 1 bookshelf speakers with Yamaha subwoofer), I won't have a new versus old cable comparison to check for myself, although my existing cables are significantly better than bell wire, so the difference would be less noticeable.This cable is well made, with one core having a blue stripe for polarity identification, and I expect good results with it when I install the new hifi at the weekend. At less than £1/metre (same price as some 42-strand cables sold elsewhere), it's a steal! Only problem is I can't give it 6 stars!

I'd obtained some linn nexus speakers from a son and quickly discovered that my old cable left a lot to be desired and looking through amazon's many speaker wire ads quickly decided to buy this cable. I had been looking through the available offerings and made my mind up to purchase these. They arrived in very quick time and I had them connected up and was soon listening to them - the sound difference was immediately apparent with an increase in bass and an altogether better - smoother and more vibrant sound and seemed sharper. Stereo image also was improved, bearing in mind the expense of some of the offerings elsewhere where the cost is often 100's of pounds - this cracking cable is a gift in fact I was so impressed by the quality I ordered another lot and bi - wired my speakers - absolute magic, if anyone wants high performance for a low cost I suggest you do likewise and get yourself some of this cable, highly recommended.

Good quality

Good quality & reasonable price.

The rent was just right because I could wire all my speakers up so now I have got surround speakers now thank you
