Can u make interconnect from speaker cables

A cockamamy answers like yours. Makes junk science look good.

It is very rare, but I've seen some companies using a coaxial cable, which is suitable for interconnects because of its inherent shielding capabilities, for a speaker cable design.

I have not seen anybody using larger gauge cables (usually used in speaker cables) for an interconnect design. It is generally not recommended to use speaker cable for interconnect and vice-versa.

You can contact CRL and ask them if that particular cable design can be used for an interconnect cable. I will be very surprised if CRL says yes to this question.

These are two interesting articles on audio cables:

@ schipo, If you do not like the answer thats your problem!, It makes no since, to cry over it on audiogon!

Can you make a silk purse out of a sows ear not really Dudes!!

I have very successfully made speaker cables out of interconnect wire, to be precise Canare GS6. It is Sold by Canare primarily as guitar wire. It is made with a single stranded 18 awg OFC conductor in a teflon insulation and a braided copper shield. Works great for 3ft long speaker cables.

I am using the same wire for an interconnect, between my processor and pre-amp. This is not critical application in my system as pro is only used to decode the Dolby from TV into analog. But I must say other wires by Canare such as L-2T2S make a better interconnect.

So if you have a not so great interconnect wire you may be able to make speaker cables from it, but I doubt the opposite is possible.
