Looks like you are sold out on most of your speaker cables. Are new supplies on the way? I recently purchase several of your HDMI, RCA Coax, digital optical and USB cable. All great! Love em'. Great product for the price. Now I am ready for some speaker cables!

I suggest that you call Emotiva and ask them. You'll likely get a quicker answer that way!
Cheers!

Wait.....Blue Jeans cable make some of the best out there for a great price. The speaker cable they use isn't that great. The strands are to thick and the cable is to heavy with little flex. Belden doesn't even market that stuff as speaker cable. You'd do much better with this stuff IMHO. www.gotham.ch/en/index.php?section=docsys&cmd=12&category=23OR The Belden 13xxA stuff with the Polyolefin insulation. I have no idea why that old ham radio guy in seattle is so hell bent on that particular cable vs. the stuff Belden actually manufacturers for speaker use called 13xxA. Oh wait I'll tell you... PROFIT MARGIN! |

Great product for the price. Now I am ready for some speaker cables! Take a look at this stuff. 50240 FRNC SPK 2x4,0mm Halogen Free www.gotham.ch/en/index.php?section=docsys&cmd=12_details&id=275Gotham USA though seems to only stock the PVC stuff and not the Halogen Free Polyolefin based cable. www.gotham.ch/en/index.php?section=docsys&cmd=12_details&id=77You really don't need the 4mm stuff either as the 2.5 is fine if the runs are short. |

It really doesn't make a difference as long as it's decent. Unless you've torn your speakers apart and switched all the cheap wire inside your just feeding cheap wire with expensive wire.

Just don't buy speaker cables that are bimetal like that cheap sh** that's acrylic.
I've seen that cheap stuff actually use aluminum for the return!
I thought it was tinned but under closer inspection and testing with oven cleaner it sure as heck was aluminum!
AVOID THAT STUFF!

Wait.....Blue Jeans cable make some of the best out there for a great price. I used to order from those guys various HDMI cables and when I was working a lot as an installer I'd buy them in one foot increments by the case load. I did though have some bad assemblies at the HDMI connector on some 3 footers of the thinner stuff. They refused to return them... That was the end of my business with Bluejeans cables! The Gotham USA connection is the best deal around in quality cables on this continent. Gotham Audio LLC ATTN: Lewis Frisch P.O. Box 111 • Nazareth, PA 18064 Phone: (610) 746-9342 • Fax: (610) 746-9360 • Cell: (404) 840-0070 Email: gothamaudio@earthlink.net Shipping address: Gotham Audio LLC • 141 E. Center Street • Nazareth, PA 18064 They don't make HDMI cables but hey... that Copartner ODM stuff is good enough from Monoprice or better yet use Bluejeans Belden based HDMI cables if you can deal with the kids the owner uses as staff and their BS return policy. Nonetheless those Bluejeans HDMI cables using bonded pair Belden cable is the best HDMI cables available and will drive a TDMS signal further than any other passive cable. |

I should point out I was dealing with a teenager employee and not the owner and I don't think the kid understood my purchasing history. They probably have a lot of returns from Luddites and thus their cynicism regarding returns for faulty assemblies. Have you ever read their return policy? You know why they are so hell bent on returns? Because they know that 99% of the time it's at the connector and not inside the actual cable... SO... What do you think they do with USED RETURNED cables huh? Re-terminate them and sell as brand new! Well in all honesty I don't deal with people that nickle and dime to that level and refuse a return because the cable isn't coiled to the owners liking. |

Hi kids,
We'll have speakers cables back in stock in about 4 weeks.
Sorry for the no stock situation. We had a huge upswing in demand on all cables last year, and this caught us by surprise. Unfortunately, cables are one of our longest lead time items.
We'll be back on track in a few weeks.
Cheers,
Big Dan

Maybe they'll be ready and offered as part of an XMC purchase. Put it all together in a package - especially XLR's. Cables would be added to my order either way (if available). In fact if there was an XMC, cables, an XPA-2, XPA-5, in one big package, I'd be all in - it would be a nice upgrade. I don't need my gen1's in my family room but why not - could sell too. It's been about 8 months and my flooded basement still isn't refinished but it's close. New basement, dust off my screen, plug in my new Emo gear and I'll be back in business. ~ Pack my lunch, no Starbucks, and carpool to work - I'll have it all paid off in no time.
Ah, oh yeah - cables back in stock .. that's great!
