Most neutral speaker cable for less than $5 a foot

Look at Alpha-Core HT speaker cable. This is what I plan to use for my long outdoor speaker runs.

I go for the Paul Speltz.

For longish runs Iv'e seen the MIT in wall wire with their gizmo on the end acceptable. I murdered a perfectly good extension cord to try out on speakers with poor results, possibly because it was very-well broken-in by heavy Skillsaw use. Regards, Mike

Beheme,

I use XLR cables. Ordinary "Yorkville" cables from Long and McQuade (a guitar/music store). The speakers are active and as such have very high input impedance. The XLR cables carry low level signal voltage with very little current and act as long interconnects.

I have used 14 ga orange extension cord for 20 years with various passive speakers with 40' runs (orange is ugly unless you can hide it).

I currently use about 50' of Monster XPNW 16 gauge wire to the passive surrounds. I don't like the way it knicks easily but it is flat and easy to paint.

Thanks, I failed to realise that you ATCs were active! anyway, seems that you put your money where you joke is and do not blow $000s in cables. I will take your suggestion seriously then!
