I just got done making an 8' speaker cable by braiding 3 runs of cat 5. Using one of the three for + the other for - and the middle one split between the two.
Here is my set up ( its not the greatest I know )
Amp - Aiwa mini system ( 12 years old i think it sounds much better than the newer ones)
Source - My computer
Speakers - Boston Acoustics A100
I was using just cheap speaker cable and it was ok with it. I put one of the speaker cables I made on one speaker and went back and fourth. It seemms that the cat5 cable brings the lower frquences to the front and some what muts the higher ones.
My question.
Will how the cable is braided and howo its broken out between + and - between the pairs make a difference?
Should I do 4 runs and not split one?
