Digital camera reviews of Cables Unlimited SuperFlat 25ft 14Awg Speaker Wire (AUD-5410-25)
Digital camera Review: Good product, but has some difficulties
Summary: 3 Stars
Overall, it's a good product. It does what it says, it's a very flat, good quality speaker wire. I used it to connect one of my side-surround speakers on a new Onkyo speaker set to my new Onkyo 605 receiver.
First, 25 feet is not as long as you think it is.... Remember you have to track exactly along walls, don't forget vertical distance as well. Since it's flat and doesn't curve, you have to figure all distances in straight lines and 90 degree turns.
Next, the wire is very stiff, so taking it around corners or making turns is difficult. You are pretty much limited to 90 degree turns. It takes some effort to shape it to the track you intend.
The adhesive is not super strong. It holds just fine to the floor, but it has pulled off the wall a couple of times.
Low profile doesn't mean no profile. As this as this wire is (and it is impressively thin), it's still clearly visable on the wall. Not a substitute for in-wall wiring. If you're running it over anything other than white, it will stand out starkly. I wish they made the white cover a little more narrow (closer to the wire profile) and put clear plastic on the edge.
CONNECTIONS are a pain!! Trying to get the flat, stiff wire to fit into a bannana clip was a challenge. My solution: make 2 1/2 inch cuts down the length of the wire. Take plyers and squish together the (now) 3 elements of the wire, twist with plyers to form something closer to a braided or twisted wire that would fit into the clips. For the spring clips in the speakers, I did the same thing. Tools required: wire cutters, plyers, strong hands.
Does the product live up to it's description: Yes, it is a very flat, great quality speaker wire. But expect plenty of difficulty laying it and connecting your components.
Summary of Cables Unlimited SuperFlat 25ft 14Awg Speaker Wire (AUD-5410-25)
Cables Unlimited Superflat speaker wires are adhesive backed and can be used on almost any smooth clean surface. This wire can be simply attached to a surface and left uncovered, or it can be easily covered with paint, wallpaper, or floor coverings. No more pulling wire through walls and attics, or using ugly wire mold to hide wire where there is no wall or attic space.Speaker Cables
