Speaker Cable Faceoff 3 - The DIY Shootout [0.21] by Thomas Goldsworthy,April 30, 2005 20:00

This effort is an offshoot of my search for a decent performing large OD cable, which will be used for my DIY speaker cables. When I bought my first really good pair of speakers, the salesman sort of talked me into a set of Monster MCX-1S cables. I had been/ am a zip cord type of guy and did not know any better. Well, after purchasing those particular cables, and speakers, I had a bit of buyers remorse. Not over the $1400 pair of speakers, but the $75 pair of cables. Ever wonder how DIY speaker cables compare to the name brands? Wonder no more. We have the definitive guide.

Preview: Flatwire 120 VAC - On Wall Power for Flatpanels and More [0.20] by tom,January 09, 2009 02:45

EXTREMELY prototype but also EXTREMELY cool, Flatwire 120 VAC really got us excited. 120 VAC is an extremely thin on wall power solution that provides 110/220 VAC in 14, 16 and 18 gauge equivalences. The cable is 15- or 20-amp rated, 8 mils thin (about the thickness of a business card), highly flexible (for making turns), and has a paintable/wall-paperable surface. The demo Flatwire showed had the wire run on the wall AND had a person put a nail through it without dying.
