Everything that I have bought from Crutchfield is excellent! A Denon DRA 800H home stereo--- that rock's you. Including my 50 foot speaker wire. And new speakers in my 99 Silverado 4 wheel drive. I'm really needing a new turntable so that's probably next.

I had an electrician pull the wire through the wall and over the ceiling to opposite side for new Klipsh R50 speakers. It worked out great, no cable to see and the stereo separation is excellent. The 16 gauge was good for the short run and the covering on the cable made it easy to pull without worry.

Pros: perfect for the job

Cons: none!

Great Outdoor Cable

I used this speaker cable to connect 2 Klipsch rock speakers to my Sony DSX-M80 marine stereo in my BBQ island. Sound is awesome. Cable was simply laid under some bark and among the garden plants. Nice recommendation from Crutchfield.

Pros: Suitable for laying in garden. Heavier gauge than the harness wiring from the Sony marine stereo.

Cons: None

Used this to rewire all four speakers when buying new ones. Superior in quality to the typical clear speaker wire sold everywhere. Also very easy to run the cable behind shelves, through cubby holes and other hard to reach places.

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
