Inexpensive speaker cables: any experience?


I’m currently running some entry Kimber Kable speaker cables and looking at possibly upgrading. In my research I’ve come across some “budget” options on eBay. I assume they’re not great but curious if anyone has any experience with some “no-name” or “budget” cables? 
 

Thoughts on these? 

Thanks!

Canare 4s11, there not going to sound like $1000 plus cables but they are very nice. I think you can pick them up for $1.50 a foot. I tried some after reading reviews, was very impressed, long breakin. I hooked them up in garage and let them run a few weeks. There so cheap you can buy extra runs and try them running shot gun. A single run comes so you can biwire if you choose, if not just double up wires and do non biwire. 

You can buy expensive cables, or make them. Sonically, the expensive might sound 1-2% better. You are really paying for the build and quality of the wire. I just make my own buying OFC wires and stringing them through a pvc tube. They sound great and very heavy duty.

Items Used: 10awg OFC wires $40, Vborg plugs $60, braided sleeving $10, shrink tubing $15

Cheers!
