I ordered the black version so that it matched my speaker stands, there is a seam which runs along one side of the cable to help identify which goes to red and which goes to black at each end. The QED Banana Plugs, which I also bought, are perfect for terminating this cable securely. I was impressed by the improvement in sound compared to my old cable. Highly recommended.

I ordered the black version so that it matched my speaker stands, there is a seam which runs along one side of the cable to help identify which goes to red and which goes to black at each end. The QED Banana Plugs, which I also bought, are perfect for terminating this cable securely. I was impressed by the improvement in sound compared to my old cable. Highly recommended. ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ Excellent qaulity *by A***Y on 11 April 2026* Excellent quality speaker wire for entry level, and very fast service ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ Good quality and very flexible cable *by M***. on 16 January 2026* Ignore the picture if you are buying the 15metre length (it currently shows a set of gaming headphones) but the right cable arrived. Used this in conjunction with KabelDirekt ā€“ Banana Plugs so I can Bi-Amp my Monitor Audio Bronze Speakers and the difference in sound was really worth it - a small priced upgrade but rewarding output! Although you can get really pricey speaker cable - I chose this as I only required lengths of just 2 metres and from reading around I dont think you get any benefit from pricier speaker cables unless you are considering longer runs. My only complaint is that the cable did not appear to have markings to denote -ve or +ve so when making the leads up just be conscious of this - hence 4 stars as a line or something would have made it a little more convenient. ## Frequently Bought Together - QED CLASSIC 79 Strand (Black) 20 Meter Hi-Fi Speaker Cable - QED Performance Audio Cable 1 m Graphite - CS947 Tacima 6 Way Mains Conditioner with Surge Protection --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - šŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** ā€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - šŸŒ **Shop Globally** ā€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - šŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** ā€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - šŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** ā€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - šŸ”’ **Secure Payments** ā€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ā­ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** ā€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/56010783-qed-classic-79-strand-black-20-meter-hi-fi-speaker](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/56010783-qed-classic-79-strand-black-20-meter-hi-fi-speaker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
