These have a good strain relief for durability, but it is stiff, so you will need 4, maybe even 6 inches clearance off the backIf you are looking for multicolored IC Hosa has some like this:

No problem, I knew there would be some electricians posting too. There are so many brands available no one can try them all.
Naw, this isn't a case where "both schools of thought have some validity" and "the truth lies somewhere in between": If there's no measurable difference, then any sonic difference likely exists only in the mind of the listener. I think the best reason to pay a premium price for cables is because they look nice.I see two distinct cable crowds, the "electricians" who believe a plug is just a plug and a wire is just a wire. Then I see "connoisseurs" who have spent big bucks, tried some different vendors, and settled on a choice that was right for them that wasn't "lamp cord".

Dear Martin, thanks for the tip! I'll be sure to look them up when I do my next rearrangement of stuff in the vain hope that it will magically create more space (every 90 days or so, on average).You can buy many different lengths of Canare cables in many different colors from Martertek. Look for Sescom cables.

For how long?Or....
You believe they will sound better.
So in your mind, placebo effect makes a difference to what you hear.
For how long?
Mapleshade? I've never heard about this "brand" before. Hopefully. Here are their claims about their Clearview Golden Helix speakers cables:Digital IC- Mapleshade

I won't even argue against the usefulness of this thread, but there's something I just can't let pass...
Mapleshade? I didn't heard about this "brand" before. Hopefully. Here are their claims about their Clearview Golden Helix speakers cables:
"Since their introduction in 2000, our entry-level Golden Helix speaker cables have been widely acclaimed as one of the best bargains in audio. Hook-up a pair; the upgrade will sound like you spent an extra $500 to $1000 more on your speakers. All bass instruments—acoustic, electric, or synthesized—will immediately have more punch and cleaner harmonics. Your woofers wont boom like that annoying purple Honda CRX that we always seem to get stuck next to at stoplights. Singers will sound like they've stepped two feet closer [not three? Pity]. When you listen to your favorite CDs, you'll hear details you've never heard before. Check out Dark Side of the Moon, the opening heartbeat'll sound supernatural."
Oh yes? Ok... I'm not sure if this some kind of joke or something, but I think I've never red such bullshitism before. This is simply priceless. The jack of all trades. Not to mention these are ugly as hell:View attachment 100292
Glad you're considering this as your favourite speaker cables. I really hope you heard just anything you would expect buying them.
Wow, cool way to bring awareness and traffic to all the niche cable brands. The more controversy there are, the more the names will be cited. Just piss off some engineer or scientist on asr with some outlandish claims, and then just sit back and let them do the marketing for you.
