    I’m honestly blown away at how noticeable the improvement is in sound quality. I’m using a pair of Martin Logan Motion 40’s with cheap radio shack speaker wire connected to them. I never believed that more expensive cables would really make a difference. A friend recommended I give these a try and a few years later, I finally did. I’m ok with admitting just how wrong so was. The improvement in the bass alone is just jaw dropping. My wife and I looked at each other and just couldn’t believe how much sound we weren’t getting before. WOW! I will be recommending this upgrade to everyone now.

    Very nice quality speaker cables. I have used a lot of different speaker cables over the years from fairly “high end” to generic and the Blue Jean speaker cables are fantastic. I really like the locking banana plugs on these to keep them snug and tightly connected. I have Emotiva XPA monoblocks that have the positive and negative speaker terminals about one foot apart from each other. I had to do a slight modification to the speaker cables by pulling up the cable end jacket (more like a pair of pants) and then carefully cut the jacket surrounding the two wires back about seven inches. The “pants” part slipped right back over the main cable jacket and all was good to go. These cables are no nonsense neutral cables so they do not act as tone controls to alter the sound from my speakers. I am aware of the whole psycho acoustical effect experienced by audiophiles who claim that adding a certain cable, power cord or interconnect cable makes their rig sound better. But, the Blue Jean speaker cables did make a difference over the generic 16 gauge speaker wires I was using. Is it because the Blue Jeans are 10 gauge or the cold weld connections? I don’t know but I can say I would highly recommend these to any audiophile who wants a great speaker cable without spending a fortune.

    Love me some Blue Jeans Cable! Seriously, theyre a high-value / low-cost proposition, and BJC as a company has always been aa pleasure to work with. They made a unique adapter for me once and the entire process was great.

    I just replaced some monster speaker cable with these cables and I would highly recommend these cables. I love the permanently installed banana connectors and how the connectors spread out to ensure a solid connection and will not pop out if they get tugged while youre messing with a different device or wire in the same area.

    Here more of the music and at a price point that is very reasonable. I upgraded my surround systems speakers with this purchase for my TV and my high-end analog stereo system is next. I have a set of Nordost speaker cables on my analog stereo system that I purchased used from a buddy that originally retailed for $880+ for an 8 foot run and I cannot hear a difference when I swapped the Blue Jeans cables in for a listening test. All the good press is well deserved - I would purchase them again - which is my highest accolade I can offer !!!

    I know most audiophiles will read this and laugh, but I hear an audible improvement with these cables. Just to be clear, I was already running very good quality 10 gauge OFC with banana plugs on my system. I bought this BJC wire because I like their products and I liked the white wire sleeve. I was NOT expecting an improvement in sound quality, but immediately after switching out I heard an audible improvement in both the clarity of the music and a slight boost in the bass - a bit more punchy! I am a believer.

    Finally a speaker cable that just does it job! Im are tired of audiophiles telling me that you need to spend thousands on cables. All hype and no substance!! I am currently using these cables to hook up at McIntosh 5300 and JBL 100s. Everything just sounds better compared to my Audioquest cables costing 4x more!! I will be purchasing more BJC products to replace my now inferior AQ cables. Buy and Try for yourself, There is nothing to lose with Amazons return policy.

    used with yamaha as 801 and rp600m, changed the box store cables bought for 40$ to these and so much difference in bass and over all more clear and noticeable difference. worth the price.

    If you want a high-quality speaker cable without any of the mumbo-jumbo of some cable manufacturers, this is your cable. It uses quality Belden cable with great locking banana plugs that are welded on. Those banana plugs and the way they are connected to the cable set this cable apart from the other cables at this price point. (I once worked for a company owned by Belden and I can say that they know cable!)

BJC Speaker Cable, made with our Ten White cable stock and Welded Locking Banana Plugs

At Blue Jeans Cable, we were never happy with the conventional methods of attaching speaker cable to banana plugs. Setscrews are fine, but lack pull strength; compression connections are never as strong as they look like they"re going to be; and solder, on large high-mass connectors, is slow going and tends to cause a lot of insulation meltback. Our solution: ultrasonic welding. Our Sonobond Ultrasonic Welder (made in West Chester, PA) welds the copper wire to the brass banana plug body without the excessive heat associated with conventional welding, fusing copper to brass in a tight, strong, low-resistance, reliable connection.

Our Ten White speaker cable stock is a 10 AWG cable with each conductor made up of 65 strands of bare copper for high flexibility.

The Plug

This is our locking banana plug, disassembled. Notice anything? There"s no attachment mechanism for the wire -- no set screws, no clamps, nothing but a channel for the wire to sit in.

The Welder

This is one of our Sonobond Ultrasonic Welders, in our Seattle shop. Unlike heat-based methods of welding, it drives a large amount of ultrasonic vibration into the junction between the wire and the plug, fusing them together.

The Weld

Here"s a plug body after welding. The surface structure of the wire breaks down during welding, allowing dissimilar metals to fuse. The resulting weld has extremely low contact resistance and high pull strength.

The "Locking" Feature

The outer collar of the banana plug is threaded. It should inserted into the binding post with the collar "backed off" from the plug end (top image). When the plug is in the binding post, simply turn the locking collar clockwise (bottom image) and it pushes a central pin forward, expanding the splines for a firm engagement in the post.
