[QUOTE="lamontjersey, post: 105077, member: 546121"] im the worlds cheapest installer, i used some of that orange extension cord wire that you buy at the home depot. i had a 100ft cord, i just cut off about 15 feet, stripped the end and twisted them together, the result is something nearly as thick as a moster cable, and double insulated, i was wondering wh y people dont just go to the store and buy some cheap 5 dollar car jumper cables and use that as monster cable. all them strands in the monster cable are just a gimmick, if the insulation is t hick enough, and i believe the speaker wire has thicker insulation than most wire, use it. just make sure you use the correct guage of wire, i mean dont use a 16 guage speaker wire where they say to use a 4 guage wire.... unless you twist 4 speaker wires together, like i did, lol. but im still the cheapest installer ever, i also used telephone wire to wire the low level inputs to my amp in the trunk, [/QUOTE]
