In Reply to: Best PA speaker cords with both 1/4 inch and Neutrik speakons? posted by hukkfinn on October 26, 2011 at 11:51:11:
It's not so much the cable as it is the connection at the connectors. Guitar Center carries a brand called Hosa. I won't buy anothe Hosa cable if I can avoid it. Two out of eight cables have failed (with light usage), as I noted in another thread. That's not good.Look back through the recent threads. There were a couple posts which suggested a few brands. My experience is that the most reliable cables I have are the ones I made. 'Course, I build everything so it will never fail. (Maybe it's just me. lol)
14 gauge is plenty if you're using 1/4" on the end. 16 would even be enough. The contact area of a 1/4" connector is tiny, and will be the weak spot.
