Bad idea?

If you want inexpensive speaker wire that sounds surprisingly good. Get a Home Depot 10/3 (preferred) or 12/3 power cord, clip off the ends and use that. It was done in Stereophile long ago and compared with audiophile speaker wire... while it was not better... it was excellent and cost effective. I use it on my office system. 

I have tried Monster and Blue Jeans and found them not to be of very good quality. I have not compared against the HD 10/3... but I'd put my money on the HD 10/3 if I had to guess. 

These are quality cables with the terminations you want. 8’ pair.

I’ve a pair with Naim Atom and ATC SCM 7 speakers (bi-wire).  Nicely made, inexpensive and American handmade.  Trifecta!  Have fun.  Ciao

Every copper wire is oxygen free unless it is tarnished. Oxygen free is Marketing hype

One more endorsement for Blue Jeans cables. There cables have proven a great addition in my system.
