Reportedly, Black & Decker's Orange Mains Extension cables work very well as hi-fi speaker cable/interconnect leads ....
Somebody, at the Quad stand at a hi-fi show a couple of years ago, used these cables as speaker leads, & people kept asking him how much they cost per metre...
Apparently, the solid copper core construction of the cable, is regarded quite highly in some Hi-fi circles....
Yours, mentally grimacing at the cost of Audio Note's speaker cables....
