Surround Cable Recommendations


Hello,

I need some cable to run to my surrounds 'on the cheap'. I'm using a Marantz SR7200 and Snell SR.5 surrounds. The runs will be somewhere around 35 feet long.

How cheap is cheap? I am using IXOS 6003 13awg cable for my HT system. Pretty good considering it is only $1.49 per foot plus terminations at Accessories 4 Less (www.AC4L.com) Regular price of the 6003 is $2.50 per foot.

If that is too cheap, then Analyisis Plus has the Theater 4 (four 16awg conductors) which they claim is for long runs. It is $9 per foot.


Or try the Analysis Plus Clear Oval at $8 per foot. The Clear is a 14awg version of the Oval 12 (12awg).

I used a total of 100 feet of the IXOS 6003 for 5 channels, so with terminations, $200 was better than spending $1000.

Well you can stick to the IXOS 6003 or go for the larger 11 awg 6006 that lists for $3.50. Accessories for less sells it for $2.39

At Audio Advisor.com you could go for Analysis Plus Oval Theater 14, which sells in bulk for $2.99 per foot. They can have them terminated also. It is CL3 rated for in wall installation as well.
