[desertfox]

Not the monster kind but what's the best value for money speaker wire that can be purchased? What brand and can someone provide an indicative price range?

Thanks!

I would suggest a decent gauge of stranded Finolex electrical wire will do the trick cost effectively.

I'm using MX Brand. 12 AWG for fronts and 16 AWG for rears. Check out mdrelectronics.com. The fronts I got for 153 Rs/m and the rears something around 60-80/m

I also use DAC cables, find them good value for money, slightly costlier than good electrical cables.

I have monoprice one(fronts/center) & are VFM-
For only $7.28 each when QTY 50+ purchased - 50ft 16AWG CL2 Rated 2-Conductor Loud Speaker Cable (For In-Wall Installation)

Buy 12 Gauge - MX at around Rs120/Mtr - MX dealer is located at Gujrati Galli, Koti, Hyd.
Alternatively I think MX website provides online order facility. Not sure if they sell Loose Speaker wire or only a bundle.

14-16 gauge speaker wire. any brand

MX, Bandridge and DAC are good local brands that seem to work decently for the money spent.

DAC is available on HFV mart.

Additionally, you will have to buy connectors, either spades or plugs. Also if you have a sub-woofer, you will have to buy seperate Sub-woofer cables.

Best,

Thank you all. How expensive are Audio Quest cables? Is there a value line in them? Where can I buy them online?
