Hey guys--

Not strictly a headphone question, I know, but this is the best audio community *I* know of.

I've got a pair of Venhaus's DIY CAT5 speaker cables (http://www.venhaus1.com/diycatfivecables.html) in my current setup (computer source, Dared MP-5 heading to PSB Alpha A/V speakers), but I need to toss those. I have to move my speakers to actually get some stereo separation in the room I've just set my media center up in, and to do that I'll have to run the speaker wire all the way up and around a door.

So, I need a really flexible speaker cable that won't break the bank (will need to buy perhaps as much as 30' by the time I'm done) and is still reasonably audiophile-grade. Any recommendations?

Van Damme Blue series if you can get it there 2.5mm should be right,gets the thumbs up on plenty of Hi-Fi forums.This seems the same as the Van Damme stuff http://www.connectronics.uk.com/speakerflex250.htm
Blue Jeans cable do some Belden speaker cable,might be worth a look.
