Cheapest but good cables….

Ok, I’m setting up a little system, a Benchmark AHB2 and DAC3 HGC. I had old Kimber cables laying around but they are going to be too short. These are from 15 years ago and I’m sure they were good and expensive. However, I’ve been a bit skeptical about speaker cables and interconnects and was going to ask here if it’s all BS but I see an older thread where almost everybody agrees that quality cables are extremely important - duh, more money!

I don’t want to go overboard on twelve foot speaker cables but I don’t want to sell myself short neither after splashing out way more than I intended to on this system.

im looking for recommendations for the cheapest cables that I’ll barely hear a difference when comparing to expensive cables.

thanks in anticipation

Furez FZ144AS 14-4

Here`s a snippet with some information about the cable 

"the primary design features of the Furez Advanced Series In-Wall Speaker Cable are the use of multiple gauge stranding within a rope lay design of high strand count 99.997% OFHC C10100 Copper and the use of quality foamed polyethylene insulation (FPE). The design yields a clean balanced sound".

When I moved my component rack off to the side I needed about 25' Ft of cable per side. Had 8' ft AQ Rocket 44`s before the change and I`m not disappointed.

Very pleased with the results

Yeah SCM...furez is a great budget choice.Too bad they are eliminating stock and the 12 no longer available.The 12/4 and mogami 3104 are my diy budget speaker cables i could live with.Mogamis needed to be run in ⏳ but made the difference.

I twisted the 14 gauge wires together which came out to 11 gauge.

Would have been nice to have the 12`s but these sound just fine to me

BTW...Anybody else having problems with constant "Page Unresponsive" notices ??
