I'm making a new SDA cable and I need a big fat speaker cable to make it out of. Maybe 9 to 15 feet. Anyone got anything like that for sale?

I've got a big chunk of Audioquest you can have. I'll have to see what I have when I get home. May or may not have some Midnight left.

MM - I built my IC with some Monster Z2 Cable (http://cgi.ebay.com/Monster-Cable-Z2-Reference-Speaker-Cable-BULK-per-foot_W0QQitemZ5863566540QQcategoryZ14966QQssPageNa meZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) this guy always has some available by the foot, so you can buy what you need.

Ok Chuck, I've got at least a 15ft (probably 17 or so, too lazy to measure) run of AQ Midnight, Four 14 awg internal conductors in a Hyperlitz braid, dark blue outter jacket. IIRC, it sold for 10 or 12 bucks a foot in it's day.

Confirm your addy, I'll get it out.

I tried man but it is very heavy and keeps pulling out. I guess you get what you ask for. :)

I'm thinking maybe thinner leads going from this monster from the connector to floor level?

Did you think about mounting a brace on the back of the SDA's for a little support?

I thought about that and also some velcro... Still need a smaller piece of wire to the connector.
