High quality speaker cable in NZ?
I bought a high quality one years ago but can't remember where I got it from. Where's the place to go these days?

Livesound.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

But what if you're looking for some $7 a metre cable and Simon's got some offcuts of some $400 a metre cable he'll do you for $375+gst????

Just buy 240VAC lighting wire, you won't hear the difference anyway. Or get it from Jaycar, where everyone gets a bargain...

There is much truth in this statement.

I'm almost certain Jae means a finished cable with two big jack plugs already attached.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I really like DiMarzio stuff...a bit like Seymour Duncan they have just been a brand that is consistently good. But, "...fine-tuned for deep bass and open highs". Come on...that's just taking the urinenium.
I subscribe to the subtle differences of say silver wires vs copper....on a hifi...but for what we need, any ole piece of JayCar speaker wire is gonna be good.

Here's a fresh internet idea - let's debate tonal variance in a blind test of JayCar wire vs Blues Lawyer wire?
