Speaker Cable


Hello,

        I would like to make my own cables to hook up my PA speakers to the PA amp.

I have purchased quality Speakon connectors.

Can anyone recommend (UK) some quality but reasonably priced cable?

I've learnt that the cables used for instrument leads should not be used for speaker casbles?

I am unsure what type of cable i should be using.

Links would be appreciated!

 

Many thanks Audiogon Community!

I use cable from TMB for PA speaker cables, they have a branch in the UK.  
 

It’s 12 gauge, easy to work with, coils nicely and has a high strand count. 

I'm building cables right now with Mogami W3103 and it's very good.  12 AWG and the insulator is thick.  Use 1/2 braid and 15mm pants.

Right on, skeotical. Canare StarQuad is similar, and great for less-important surround speakers' long lengths and other budget-sensitive projects.

For affordable premade I have respect for Kimber's 4/8TC. No experience with the MUCH-cheaper to make 4/8PR they're marketing heavily.  Teflon's expensive, but as a point in the system evolution may be warranted.
