Best CHEAP long under-carpet speaker cable
I'm about to put down carpet in an area that will support a second mid-fi system. What's the best speaker cable to go underneath the carpet? The length has to be around 20-25 feet. Obviously the most important issue is that it's relatively flat.
What do you think?

Kennyt, I think you are first required to perform this test. Fill the bath tub with water. Take your shoes and socks off. Stand in water filled tub. Now place one of the speaker cable ends in your mouth. Next firmly grasp the other cable in your moist hand and have your wife power up your amplifier. If you are not dead, these wires are safe for under your carpeting. I hope I have been helpful. |
if you don't want to spend a fortune, check out this cable made by DeCorp: http://www.ramelectronics.net/html/flatwire.html you can get it in 12 gauge (.008"), 14 gauge (.006"), and 18 gauge (.004"). i've never used the wire before so i can't comment on how it "sounds". good luck. |
