Good product but they come short!! September 18, 2008

I bought this cable to do my surround for a house I was building. I did all my calculation on how much I was going to need, put some contingency of about 10% in terms or wire length, etc.

well, pretty soon I realized they the 100ft they clame they sell you, its really only 87 ft. I bought 2 rolls and both were short by over 10 ft each.

I call and they said I could return it and they will try to send me others back, I didnt have the luxury of time for doing all this since my builder was putting the drywall in the next few days. I can of course I just cannot delay the contruction of an entire house just because this wire.

So at the end I had to use whatever they send me and go buy some more cable at a local store (more expensive of course). So bottom line is that I paid for 200 ft of cable and I only got 178 ft.

so if you are buying this wire, buy a lot buy 50% more of what you are going to need. based on other reviews it looks like I am not they only one with this problem.

If you actually need 100' of cable do not use this. I needed to run about 90' and my my spool had about 82' on it which completely screwed me up. I did not listen to others here and now I have to pay for it.

Nice product June 18, 2008

I received the order in a timely manner and it works great. I couldn't believe the difference in loss between the 16gauge I had and this 12gauge. There was so much more loss with my 16gauge it was ridiculous. The only problem with this that caused me not to rate it a 5 was the fact that the spool wasn't 100ft. long as advertised. I measured out my room and I needed 2 41ft. runs for my back speakers. This was after I added 15% for give and play. I measured the distance down from my receiver to the floor, around every nook and cranny along my wall and up the stand for the speaker itself. So I figured I'd cut the wire exactly in half and have 2 50ft. runs and I'd coil the excess in back of something like my couch. The run just made it which I thought was weird. So I measured its length and it was only 40ft. So I ended up only getting about 80ft out of the 100ft I should have. Otherwise the speaker wire works great.

This is the worst case of stealing from the consumer in a long time. The cable is not all copper, just one side and the length is 11 1/2 feet short of 100ft! wow! This product is shown on other sites[google search] as almost always short by huge amounts of feet not 2 inches, but eleven plus feet short.

I had to drive 70 miles to pick up a cable after this lemon came. I could not finish the install that day. waste of time for this raptor wire.

very poor of the china manufacture...buy USA

Should be advertised as "100 ft minus 15 ft" March 18, 2008

The speaker wire arrived on time and in good condition as expected. The wire is thick (12ga) which is great if you have some longer runs to your speakers. The jacketing is thick and strong as well. Overall the product is top notch I must say. The only problem is that of course I got duped on the length as the other reviewers have mentioned. I only needed 90.5 feet of wire so I thought I would be safe, lo and behold the roll only had 86.5 feet so WTF? Why the heck are these rolls of wire so short, I have no clue but Amazon should get a different vendor and stop this nonsense. Take my advice, if you only need 80 feet of speaker wire total, then this 100 foot roll is perfect for you.

Edit: 09Apr08
I emailed Amazon about how much wire I was shorted and they refunded 20% of the purchase price. Great customer service from Amazon I must say, now if they would just find another speaker wire manufacturer.........
