Great cable, easy to work with and getting very clear sound on a 25' run. Just a note that the color band denoting positive vs negative was red on the cable I received, not black/white as in the photo. Doesn't matter to me, but FYI.

By updating to the Audioquest wire from the previous wire I had, I can hear the difference between the previous wire and the Audioquest wire. They are a lot clearer and deeper than the previous one. Glad i bought them. Big difference.

Bought this as part of a system upgrade

Brad from Buffalo, NY on 4/24/2022

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Purchased these to connect a new pair of speakers. Very impressed by the improved sound, and I suspect the obvious high quality of the cables has something to do with it. Liked the fact that the cable is marked with a number at each foot, making it easy to measure out a desired length.

Audible Improvement - Some Manufacturing QC Needed

Ben from California on 3/24/2022

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

This upgraded speaker cable made a significant improvement over generic spool cable for my vintage hi-fi. The only complaint I have is the negative half of the wire was not centered within the shielding. Once separating the positive from the negative half (at the connection points for the amplifier and speaker) it was obvious the negative was nearly at the edge of the insulation.

Pros: Fidelity

Cons: Manufacturing Quality Control

Rebecca from Green Bay, WI on 2/20/2022

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

This directional speaker cable really does make a difference! The quality is so much cleaner in all ranges. Would definitely recommend the 14 gauge for 15-foot speaker run lengths. Used with new Crutchfield banana connectors. (The previous 12-gauge copper wire was 30 years old & starting to turn green.)

Pros: Easy to cut & prep wire for connections. Direction flow & polarity well marked Flexible cable.

Cons: A little pricey, but well worth the price.

Now I'm a believer. Not a trace of doubt in my mind

James from Monterey, VA on 4/29/2021

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

I purchased "audiophile grade" speaker cables online for my front speakers 2 1/2 years ago - all the reviews stated these were really good. Yesterday, I purchased a 30 ft. roll of AudioQuest X2 speaker cable from Crutchfield. I got home late but installed banana plugs and wrestled these new wires behind my cabinet to the front speakers, and tried them. There was a noticeable improvement in sound quality. I listened more this evening and was even more impressed. The bass sounds tighter, treble in noticeable improved (much more detailed), and midrange seems smoother. The X2 cable is much better than my previous "audiophile" speaker cables. Problem is, now I'm curious how $400 speaker cables will sound. But the X2's are good - apparently the missing link in my sound system.

Pros: Improved clarity

Cons: No problems at all with the X2 cable, but I did have a problem with the Crutchfield banana plugs. I could not force them into the speaker terminals - they wouldn't fit, so I had to resize the plugs with needle-nose pliers (carefully) until they fit. "Oh, bother" late at night

Good Stuff! A bit pricey perhaps, but nice wire, easy to work with and does the job... way better than your average DIY store lamp cord!

Pros: Easy to work with. Strips very easily. Very flexible. Performs its job well. Doesn't argue with you, won't eat you out of house and home like your kids...

Cons: ...a bit pricey for a 30 foot roll.

Exactly what I was looking for - good quality speaker wire. Red marking on one wire helps keep the connections to terminals proper. Twisted strands are solid copper, not copper coated aluminum. Wire was heavy enough to uncoil, straighten and lie flat.

Great wire for surrounds, ATMOS, and heights if you already use Audioquest in your system. To be honest, they will not improve the sound input from the source to your receiver/processor. Those cables are more important, and the better they are, the better these guys will make your speakers sing.....

Pros: correct transfer of audio, directional as well great with banana plugs for quick connection

Quality wire, very pliable and easy to work with. Lays nice and flat once removed from the spool. The two conductors separate easily and strip cleanly. When installing, make sure the arrows on the wire are oriented away from the source and toward the speakers - this is very important if you are using different style connectors for the source and speakers (e.g. banana plugs at the source and spade connectors for the speakers).

The X2 cable

average joe from USA on 7/11/2018

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Super great cable. Very balanced and smooth sounding. You'll definitely notice a little difference from stock cables. The best speaker cable pool you can get for your money. Strips easily without a mess or destruction of cable. Not as many copper stands as basic cable pools. A little more solid with thicker strands. I used the Crutchfield speaker connectors as well, to finish cable. I would highly recommend for "snake oil" critics or music listeners who want great sound, long lengths, and high quality for a low price.

Pros: ideal for stereo setups that need a lot of wires. Great for basic music listening.

Cons:

Easy to strip this wire

Josette from Ninety Six, SC on 12/24/2017

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

This is the best speaker cable I've ever used. I'm not sure if it provides any better sound or signal than other high-quality cable, but it's so much easier to strip the shielding off the wire! What I hate about speaker cable is cutting the plastic shield without cutting the underlying wires. I was able to cut this with a small knife and the shield is so soft and pliable that it was easy top cut it without harming the wires. Bravo!

Pros: Easy to strip, to connect terminals or for bare-wire install Great sound

This is great thick wire. I use this and AudioQuest's Rocket 33 exclusively in my system. I use the Rocket 33 for short runs and the X2 for longer runs. I've noticed my amp does seem to run as hot with 14 Gauge wire as it did with 16 Gauge, probably due to less resistance.

Pros: Thick sturdy cable.

Great product, surprising difference

Jon from Osage Beach, MO on 9/4/2016

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

I had just purchased a new receiver and speakers from Crutchfield. When they both arrived I realized I didn't have any speaker wire. I didn't want to wait to order some so I went to my local home improvement store and bought some of their wire. After realizing I was going to buy some new tower speakers I decided to not short change them and buy some quality wire. I really didn't think it would make much difference but I wanted to put it to the test. After listening to my speakers with the new wire all I can say is WOW, I couldn't believe the difference it made! No distortion, no background noise and clean, clean music. The depth of the sound was unreal! If you are on the fence wether to invest this much money on speaker wire, don't think twice about it. Order this wire, it really makes a difference you can hear!! And with Crutchfield's guarantee you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Pros: Quality product that makes a real world difference. Piece of mind.

Cons: Wish I wouldn't have wasted $30 at the home improvement store

The Audio Quest X2 speaker cable arrived on time and was exactly what I expected. However, I was a little surprised at how neatly the speaker cable was packaged by Audio Quest (in a very attractive box). I especially liked the clear (easy to see) red marking indicating polarity.

Pros: Speaker cable has very clear polarity (red) marking.

Cons: None

Most certainly a high quality cable but found equivalent at a much cheaper price. Again though a high quality cable

Pros: High quality cable, well identified pos neg wires

Cons: cost.. this was the big factor.... I latched onto several alternatives at much lower cost with no impact to audio

Nice basic good cable. Had some older type 4 cable i was using as main cables . I bought this stuff to use to upgrade some internal cable in some revel f12s . Actually made a difference so i use this as main until some kimber cable arrive . No difference when compared to type 4 but the 4 is going on 9 years i believe, cant remember but the ends could use some cleaning so it was a unfair comparison. Highly recommend for budget minded speaker runs , will not be disappointed.

Pros: Good quality for the money

Cons: None at this price

I found this wire to be fairly easy to thread into binding posts in PSB Imagine T speakers and Marantz PM8005 amp. The white stripe is useful in getting the polarity right. In my setup, with the speakers a little more than four feet from the amp, I found the length of wire to be just adequate to do both.

Pros: Easy to use.

Cons:

It is true your system will only sound as good as its weakest link. Mine was the speaker wire. I was using some wire I had found around the house for my "listening room". A small room where I have a 9 yr old Arcam amp with a 30 yr old Dual 1264, tied to PSB Alpha 1 bookshelf speakers. The difference with this new speaker wire was astounding. The sound was much richer, fuller, and lifelike. The sound improvement was definitely noticeable. Highly recommend if you are using a basic, thin (high # gauge) speaker wire.

Pros: Great sound!!!

Cons: None.

Apparently All Speaker Cable is Not Created Equal

UR2 from North Texas on 7/29/2013

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Was using Monster's XP Compact Precision speaker cable between my Yamaha RX-A830 and Klipsch speakers. The sound quality was good, but felt that it should have been better considering the quality of my receiver and speakers. Decided to take a chance on AudioQuest's X2 speaker cable, since I had earned some Crutchfield bonus dollars that would take some of the sting out of the high purchase price. Well, the soundstage and sonic quality of music improved quite markedly through the AudioQuest X2 speaker cables. There seemed to be less distortion and more instrumentation/note separation in the music with both classical and rock. To be fair, I also changed out my Sewell Pro-Maestro banana plugs with AudioQuest SureGrip-BFA gold plated banana plugs; so it could have been a combination of the speaker cable and banana plugs.

Pros: Crystal Clear Sonic Reproduction and Note Separation

Cons: Pricey

This is a high gauge quality cable. It has a thick jacket and is somewhat inflexible. Note that when you run it, the arrows on the cable should be in the direction of the speakers. Due to the thicker gauge and jacket, it will take up more room if running through furniture with pre cut openings.

Pros: High Quality

Cons: Thick cable.

Great cable, using with front Polk speakers in HT, should have started with this vs standard XP, very significant improvement in all respects; detail, bass, etc, in my HT very nearly the equal of AudioQuest Type 4 - which I have used to biwire the center channel speaker, Also the X2 is much heaver than the G2 that I have used - in a different application,

14 is bigger than 16?

Emmanuel from Lubbock, TX on 4/21/2013

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Did you know that a 14 guage wire is bigger than a 16 gauge wiring? Niether did I. And did you know that the thickness of your wiring could affect the signal your speaker receives? All these little infos are the kind of things the average buyer looking for a speaker wiring easily overlooks. But don't worry I got a solution for those of you that are technically challenged like myself; just buy a quality wiring like the audioquest X2. I didn't know where to begin when I started looking for a wire but after talking to a Crutchfield Advisor named Josh about an infinity speakers he suggested I asked him to suggest a good/solid speaker wiriing that won't break the bank he suggested the X2 and boy was he right on both counts. The sound coming out of my Infinity P363 has as much to do with the speaker drivers as it does with the wiring. Sadly, I failed to give Josh the advisor his due credit when I placed my order from Crutchfield. Please help me rectify that guys.

Pros: Quality and value Deliver stron clean signals

Cons: Uh...can't think of any

Excellent heavy duty cable that will last. Coupled with Infinity Primus P363 speakers the sound was excellent.

Pros: Heavy quality covering and red marking on one lead makes life easier on making the proper connections to receiver and speakers. Also markings to show the proper direction for running cable from receiver [never realized there was a difference] and footage.

Cons: Little pricey.

TOTALLY AWESOME CALBES

Verified employee review (What's this?)

I received the white X2 speaker cable today and was VERY IMPRESSED by the QUALITY and size of the cable. I own a pair of Klipsch Icon VF-36 floor standing speakers and I am able to Bi-wire them and that is what I did. I am playing the cd player to burn in the cables. I have noticed a quicker and more detailed sound even at very low volume, this is quite a feat as I was in the artillery when I served in the military and I lost a lot of high end in my hearing , so for me to hear detail at low level speak volumes for the ability of these cables to deliver sound clearly and fully. I will be buying more AudioQuest products in the very near future.

Pros: DETAIL, SPEED,SMOOTHNESS, OPENNESS

Cons: NONE

This is GREAT speaker wire. I changed this out from another brand cable that had preattached banana plugs. The sound from my rear speakers in particular seems much cleaner now as I could was getting a strange light noise before I could not trace down to anything but the other brand speaker wire. I did add the "M" brand gold banana connectors to ease with connectivity and I would highly recommend this product.
