Beautiful DIY 12-Gauge Speaker Cable Tutorial

Описание: Do you want a top-notch/high-quality audiophile-like speaker cable? Do you know you don't have to spend $$$$ to get the most out of your audio system? Well, then you found the right video! I'll be showing you step-by-step how to make a speaker cable starting with all the supplies you'll need.

I spent weeks looking into speaker cable. What type? How long? What brand? What price is reasonable? Should I spend hundreds or a hundred on 100-feet of cable? What gauge is best? What type of banana plugs? Of all the research I did, what I used I found to be the best of the best (without spending unnecessarily more money for no increase in quality/value). I would have spent more, but it wasn't necessary. Plus, the predetermined lengths of cables felt too expensive and didn't seem to have consistent reviews in terms of performance/quality. Building it yourself ensures you build it how you want; plus, you can choose the materials you use. 12 gauge speaker cable is certainly overkill for short runs, but it offers less resistance than thinner gauge cables. So go with whatever gauge cable suits your needs best, or don't overthink it and go with 12 gauge!
