Better than the old way of wired speaker connection.

It's fairly easy to convince yourself that spending more money on audio gets better, but that's not always the case. Some of these guys speak poetically about things that can bring only a small improvement - at best - and sometimes at a tremendous cost. But while I'm not a music lover, I think I heard an improvement when I installed them in place of the speaker wires. The music seems "fuller" if that's the right word? I had some old twisted pair copper that you put in a small hole and they…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Negativity present

Overall great solid cables

Overall robust cables. The price is only a plus. There were also 16 gauge versions of this brand which were very strong cables. They are definitely heavier for 12 gauge. Of course. Very well done. I listen to a lot of audio so I can assure you this is definitely not a placebo effect. You can hear more detail and fullness in the sound. The 16 gauge sounded great, but the sound was a little thinner. I have had and used more expensive "high end" cables. Save money and buy them. Invest in better…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Weight

Great sound, well-made cable!

There are those who think speaker wire doesn't matter and would use almost anything to connect their speakers to an amplifier. Then there are those who spend hundreds of dollars on cable alone, with the firm belief that if they find the right cable they will find the sound they are looking for. can choke your system (and I've heard of it), but I also have a feeling that beyond a certain level of quality the differences will be tiny. So when I wanted cables I wanted lots of OFC strands and good…

Pros
  • The Best in Its Niche
Cons
  • Short Manual

Sounds like the best bass

I don't really believe in the ability of cables to significantly improve the sound, $1000 for speaker cable smells like snake oil to me. I bought these cables mainly because I ran out of speaker wire and banana plugs and didn't want to buy any more. Anyway, I pulled out my existing speaker wires because they were too short for my new placement and plugged in the 12 foot Mediabridge wires. Banana plugs are a perfect match (which in my experience is not always the case) with both my Rotel…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

excellent speaker wire - fit and finish and very competitive price

I have Elac Unifi Ub5 and Yamaha R-N803 speakers - I used some generic I think 14AWG - just pretty cheap speaker wire, no shielding - it unless outer insulation counts as shielding - I bought Monoprice banana plugs anyway but was too lazy to install them, but I also wanted to upgrade my cables a bit and have had a pretty good experience with the Media Bridge - I have long Cat5 network cables as Bought as well as a 25 foot subwoofer cable. Received 2 cables from Amazon on time but one of the…

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Great construction and finish at a reasonable price

I bought these to replace 15 year old Monster speaker cables where the banana plug coating was becoming brittle and starting to crack. When I first bought the Monster cables I tried a dozen different speaker cables and for the price the Monster cables gave the cleanest sound. When I connected them, the difference was between day and night. The sound is much cleaner and, dare I say, louder at the same volume. The build quality is quite solid. The PVC cable jacket is strong yet flexible. The…

Far exceeded my expectations

I set up my desktop 2.1 a long time ago. Paradigm Titan V2, Dayton Sub-1000 connected to a Pioneer SX-10AE. I've been using Amazon Basics 12 gauge speaker wire all along and knew I should upgrade to a higher gauge at some point. The holidays were coming and I got some Revain gift cards from family so I figured 2 of these 12 inch cables would cost around $40. I just hooked them up tonight and didn't expect that much of a difference. . Immediately I noticed a significant improvement in clarity. I

Pros
  • Audio and video accessories
Cons
  • Without automatic controls

I have Elac Unifi Ub5 and Yamaha R-N803 speakers - I have used some common I think 14AWG - just fairly cheap cables for speakers without no shielding - if you don't consider outer insulation to be shielding - anyway I bought monoprice banana plugs but was too lazy to install them, but also wanted to upgrade my cables a bit and had pretty good experience with a media bridge - I bought for a long time Cat5 network cable plus a 25ft subwoofer cable. I received 2 cables from Amazon in a timely…

  • Cables and Connections
Cons
  • Long delivery time
