Thoughtless 7 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Could someone please tell me what type of wire i can use for a speaker cable? I've been told that a normal guitar lead will work, but also told a power lead will be best. I'm a little confused here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshvegas Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 (edited) DO NOT USE A GUITAR LEAD! it'll work for a short time but it its pretty stupid. but yes power cable will work perfectly so well that recording studios use it to wire up the mixing room monitors and you don't really get more demanding than that for quality!

mikhailgtrski Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Regular 16 - 14 ga. lamp/zip cord works fine, although I found a roll of Monster speaker cable (fancy zip cord ) at Home Depot that was fairly inexpensive and works well. As others mentioned, don't use guitar cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my cable ever fails, i can return it and get another one, no charge. I've done it once, and i'll never have to buy a cable again. Monster can have their "Monster" if i can continue to get my free cables. Metallica sued a 60 year old guy for making a wheel rim called the "Metallica." Words get copyrighted. Gene Simmons owns the rights to the word "it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
