Lord_Beelzebub Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Quick question please. In a couple weeks I plan on buying a pair of RP 280F speakers and would like to know what you guys use for speaker wire? What quality wire should I be looking for? I'm planning on using 12 AWG and oxygen free, but unsure what brands to stay away from and what brands are reputable and great to use. If anyone has links they would like to share with me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I use, thirty bucks for a hundred feet. It has 87 strand count, which means a lot of little wires. Stay away from the ones with a low strand count. https://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=102&cp_id=10239&cs_id=1023901&p_id=9343&seq=1&format=2 Will you be using banana plugs? There are some to stay away from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some to stay away from. The wire WVU80 provided the link for would be fine, and it's reasonably priced. Beware high priced wire. I know of no convincing evidence that it is any better. Words that come to mind are "snake oil," "fraud," and "Dumbo feather." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
