Merry Christmas all!

I showed off my Vampire Wire, now for my Furez 10/2.

I experimented with a different finish on the ends but settled for the double cans.

    Thanks to all the nice compliments!

    @ B Run, how do they sound? Well, I've been listening very close and so far, they haven't made any sound, but because they do such a wonderful job of bringing current from the amp to my speakers, the speakers sound great :mrgreen:

    The rear channels are finally done!!!

    Thanks Doug, for working with me and bringing a fine product to the market and making it affordable.

    We'll give this project a small rest and upgrade the surrounds, maybe neon orange :cheesygrin:

    Thanks Geoff, You are very welcome :) It was a pleasure working with you on this project.

    As a side note, in the New Year we are planning on putting together Cable DIY kits for those who want to make their own IC's, speaker cables and power cables. Hope to have them listed and available sometime in Jan.
