Thumbs up Home Audio Wire

Anyone know a good place to get home audio speaker wire and interconnects without the crazy markup? In the GTA or online would be awesome.

Thanks

I usually buy all my speaker wire at home depot or similar.
as far as interconnects, either make your own or pay a lot , depends on the quality and fancy lookyness haha.

Well there is a topic we haven't had in a while...

I am not aware of any retailers not willing to accept the standard product markup on wire. I buy used from eBay or Audiogon when I want a premium product am not prepared for retail. There are a lot of decent car audio lines with good construction (knuKonceptz comes to mind) and making your own can save a few peso's as well.

knukon was the cheapest wire i could find for the thickness i wanted (10 gague) but for 16 you can find that pretty much anyplace for a decent price , or check out telephone wire if you really wanna save, dont plan on puttin a ton of power through them

Agreed....or just go to Home depot as said above and buy some lamp cord or the speaker wire they have on the spools.
