DIY Cables

Skynut

I am thinking about building my own cables just for S#!T's and giggles and was wondering where is the best place to buy components. I am thinking about using Silver wire and plugs so I may check out the impact silver has.
Any suggestions where to get the best price?
Any suggestions which components are best?
Any personal experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks

Actually I should have said I want to build interconnects, not speaker cables.

My Bad.

Unless you're going to be disconnecting and reconnecting your speakers a lot, there's no reason to add any connectors. The more you add the more resistance your putting into the wire. Keep it simple, it will sound better.

Thanks, the wire here is a lot cheaper than I have found elsewhere.

I will let everyone know how they come out.

Cool. I've been wanting to try them out myself. Cool looking stuff.

So??? I'm dying to know how they turned out?

I have RTi8's, CSi5, SVS 12 inch box sub, Denon 3805, and FXi3's as rears... (Well, soon will ) I need something fairly cheap, but that sounds good, as possible. Checked out the Signals, they seemed ok, but fairly expensive i thought. Ebay possible for ok cables??

Thanks
