A work of art
By bdgilfry@wildchildpublishing.com
Accell speaker wire is a great wire at a really good price. As soon as I opened the shipping package, I was impressed. The clear insulation is ample. The wire itself is made up of many fine strands that are woven into bigger strands, which in turn are woven to create the final 16-gauge wire.Be assured that this is not inferior wire--something originally meant to be used as lamp cord--relabeled to take advantage of the booming home theater business. It was obviously manufactured to be high-quality speaker wire (at a reasonable price).Before buying any speaker wire in bulk here at Amazon, check the weight (always given on the product page, just above the shipping weight). This wire outweighs other so-called "16 Gauge Wire" by nearly two to one, being reminiscent of Monster Cable speaker wire that costs a lot more.Several vendors sell this wire here on Amazon at a variety of prices. You should pay less than $.20 a foot, including shipping. The best price I've seen so far here at Amazon is about $.16 per foot, including shipping (when bought in a 250 foot roll).I am currently rewiring two home theater systems (one 5.1 and one 7.1) using only Accell wire. I feel it's quite unlikely that I would find a better 16-gauge wire even at twice the price (I've looked).Remember that high-quality cords and cables are important to bring out the best in your audio/video system; but never, NEVER, judge quality by price. Consider, too, that ordinary lamp cord of sufficient gauge will give you probably at least 97% of what your system has to offer. You can obtain maybe another 1% by shopping wisely for better wire. Or you can spend a fortune (and a lifetime) trying to find the Holy Grail of that extra 2 or 3 percent.Here's the deal: No matter how good your amplifier, speakers and cables may be, they will never sound any better than your source material. If you plug an old gramophone into a million-dollar sound reproduction system, you will still be hearing only the capabilities of the gramophone. You might be able to play it really loud, but the sound will never approach high-fidelity because the recording itself is not even close to being high-fidelity.The sad truth is that even CDs produce pretty crappy sound.We have finally entered an era where we can reproduce music nearly as it was recorded, using blu-ray players and discs that can regenerate and transfer lossless sound.If you're looking for the best sound your money can buy, you'll be better off spending your $$$ for a good blu-ray player and buying (or renting) the highest quality discs, both video and audio. Play your music through a modest amplifier with nice speakers and you'll be happy from the start.You can always upgrade your system later with a more powerful amp and better speakers; but, even then, this is the only speaker wire you will ever need.*edit* I have installed and used this wire now. Working with it is a pleasure. It strips easily and is flexible. It doesn't kink; and it sounds great. The wire, once stripped, behaves well (doesn't fray or spread), so that tinning is not necessary. It crimps nicely, too, if you're using banana or pin terminals.The only caveat I have: It is REALLY difficult to distinguish the hot from the cold. You have to have good eyes and good light to see the ACCELL information printed (in white) on the hot side of the wire. Still, I would not allow that to deter me from buying this wire again.

Excellent
By MAHESH PANICKER
Best speaker wire I could get my hands on to go around my walls and cavity. Also the quality was evident from the way it was packed and shipped.

By Mikhail Testa
From the moment I took this wire out of the box I was amazed at the quality of wire. I had been researching differences in wires and what guage was needed to best reproduce the sound accurately. The wire is broken down into many strands but not too many to where it would break and go all over the place if you cut too deeply into the insulation. My only qualm with the it was that it was kind of difficult to discern between the cables. The only differnce seeming to be the accell logo printed across on of the cables. Other than that this is an exellent cable and would definitely recommend to all my friends looking at purchasing some quality cable at a excellent price.Recommendations for additons to this cable and your home theater. Look to [monoprice(dot)com] Excellent prices on HDMI cables and banana plug connectors for $1.82 comparable to monster QuickLock MKII Gold Banana Connectors that run $12's +.Also check out Tekzilla review of "How To Choose The Best Speaker Wires: Best Gauge, Brand ...
