Making The Best Speaker Cable For Money, How To DIY HiFi Cables

Snake oil. You in no way need 6 gauge wire for the amount of currant used in home audio. And pure copper is pure copper. Nothing you can do to it or call it that changes that fact.

Thanks for sharing your tutorial. These are the nicest DIY cables I`ve ever seen, I`m sure they sound as good as they look ! What was the cost for this project ?

You make many different length cuts, strippings, etc but don’t mention them during the process. Please list the above in a reply.

Also does that cable come in 10 gauge? I’d like to do the same for my 3-way tri-amped towers’ woofers. Long story for another day 😂

You are my soul mate maximizing conductivity to speakers - that keeps damping high.

TIP: I wear gloves to prevent any contact and contamination of conductors & materials touching same.

So it‘s not DIY at all, the cable is procured.

Man! Those scissors sound great.

Thanks!

Hello, does it matter which color wire you put together.. I put (red & orange) , (Brown & Yellow), I'm making them bi-wire

Why are the wires inside the speaker boxes thin?

Can you make me up three cables of same and post to UK? I need 2 x 3m and 1 x 1m 🙏🏼

There is no science to this, sorry y'all. You can save your money and have the exact same sound. Its fun to pretend, but really this is a hoax.

Thank you for the top tutorial.

BEAUTIFUL ! Thanks .

O verygood~ 😊😊😅😅❤❤❤

bare wire is way better ...why do you need two other connectors connected to the wire when you dont have to ?? just sayin

Great tutorial. Lovely quality cable 🎯👌🏻

Canare 4S11 is good even lower priced option. Star quad is engineered specifically for this application.

I follow your DIY cables and it turn out so great. I can hear the clarity of all range, can hear the missing instruments. Waiting a week for the cable breakin time. Hope it will sound better

Can you send the link for banana plugs then I can order it?

Where do you source those binding posts!

@TharBamar I've heard in one of your videos when putting together I think it was speaker cable, you stated that I don't need the ends.. where the screw goes on top of the banana pull up. Is that because some of the screws are magnetic? Or if you can please enlighten me. Thank you

The UG power cable that draws power to my home is similar in size !

As I always say: the fancier the cable, the fancier the sound.

You forgot to mention what the cost was per cable at a 6ft length....

In your experience, I know that ultrasonically welded cables are stronger and can handle more force when pulling, but is there any sonic enhancements versus just using a locking or screw cap banana plug by itself?

first :you need bought pure silver cable
second: need pure copper plugs

I have Chord Shawline speaker cables and interconnects. But this will be worth a try!!!

I really appreciate and respect your enthusiasm for audio, but no, I'll respectively and completely disagree with you. Voltage and current requirements of the typical household 2 speaker or any variant in-between that and a full blown 7.1 surround AV system is much less than what was made here. Plus, the contact surface of those bananna plugs you inserted into your speakers is not anywhere near the same as the ridiculous amount of copper you just placed in front of them, so there is your bottleneck of energy.

I know that this is an older video, but I have been looking for the big banana plugs on parts Express but I didn't see the same ones.

what he did wrong is double the wire up.... theres no need for that. what you do is cut the casing back expose the 4 smaller cables... remove the casing from each. get your banana plug withought the outter casing... place it in the middle of the 4 wires and wrap the 4 cables around the bananna plug. If you need to solder it. then wrap in electrical tape then shrink wrap it... Or if you have big balls you can cut the casing of all the wires until you just have copper and get a giant sleeve for that lol.

i made a set of these a few years backusing canare 4s14 and am very happy with them. The4s14 resulys on 2ea #11's while the paired #12's will result in a #9 wire.

what would be superior to this than just a pure copper silver plated cable??

Hello, good morning! Where can I buy that specific cable online!?

😊Can you Show us how to Vantablack(World Darkest Black) coating on Aluminium foil sheet & wrip around your Cable can!.! 100% RF frequency blockage & 100% 0 interference😮 Video Have. Best of the Best in Sound😊

And why everything in black, don't you have a sense of aesthetics?

Thank you for the tutorial - one question, the banane plugs you now advice (viborg vb 401) can only accept a 4mm cable 😅 how can it match with the 2 wires of the Mogami cable ? In that case it would be better to use the Mogami 3103 with only 1 wire per banana ?
Thanks in advance for your reply

Hello have you tried bi wiring using Mogami 3104 ? Does it make a difference over single wire ? Thanks for your input.

The gauge of the cable should be determined by the distance from the amplifier to the speaker.

better option is Supra cable 6mm x2, copper is covered in tin which is better than silver, and no oxygenation occour.

they are very very short, who has speakers that close together??

i love your work. thanks for sharing your ideas and passion.
BTW. any reason why you don't use the Y shape shrink sleeves at the Base of the cable?.. they look pretty nice too... Cheers

For my B & W 706 s2 I am looking for cables around 6 feet in length . What would you recommend mogami 3104 - Bi-wired or mogami 2972 Bi-wired. Note b & w suggest to do bi-wiring.

I'm a little confused on the effective gauge. 2x12awg is effective gauge of 10awg based on online calculators. Would it not be cheaper just to buy 10awg wire? 6awg would be if all 4 were combined into a single wire in terms of effective gauge? Am i missing something?

You do know you can get y shaped heat shrinks for cables like this, right?

The wires used inside the speakers aren't this so-called good.

I’ve just finished making my Mogami w3104 cable and it’s magical 😍 BUY IT !

"best quality speaker cables" and then youre plugging them in with banana connectors.

Yeah, ok.

Any technical proof that this is the best cable for money except the fact that you combine claimed best products to create a home-made, very persuasive-looking anaconda-size speaker cable?

Just ordered 10m of Mogami w3104 bargain of a price 💪🏼💪🏼
