A longstanding stalwart of the hi-fi accessory world, QED Profile 79 Strand speaker cable is a true classic.

Truly legendary heritage
Launched in 1978, QED 79 Strand quickly became an essential speaker cable upgrade. Much thicker than conventional speaker cables of the day, 79 Strand demonstrated the noticeable difference a speaker cable could make – at an affordable price. Little wonder, that over 45 years later, it continues to be the default ‘go to’ choice for anyone seeking a no-nonsense speaker cable upgrade.

Smooth, well-rounded sound
The case for 79 Strand cable is as strong today as it’s ever been. Much thicker than basic cable, the 14 AWG gauge, 79 strands ensure a deep bass response, especially over longer distances. Oxygen Free Copper (OFC) strands help the cable deliver a smoother, more detailed sound than ‘bell wire’.

Durable
Another advantage that QED’s 79 Strand cable offers is its durability. Flexible enough for easy routing, the thick casing is also extremely durable, helping it withstand the knocks and scrapes that any cable has to withstand in day-to-day life.

Make the best value upgrade possible to your hi-fi or AV system, with QED Profile 79 Strand.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from QED 79 Classic Speaker Cable QED 79 is a good value for money speaker cable which does a great job of taking the output from your amp to your speakers, it doesn't add anything and it doesn't take anything away, bass, treble and mid-range are all clear and sound great to me. I've used QED 79 strand for years in various stereo set ups and have always been happy with it. I've not tried it in an AV set up but you can rely on Richersounds to give sound advice on which cables are best suited to your system and budget.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great budget cable Bought this cabling after my old cables got misplaced in a house move. Great price and quality - very happy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good but with an awkward flaw which is not great I have used these cables for a couple of weeks now. They work well and are good value. I dropped a point because although it's POSSIBLE to distinguished the positive/negative wires, it difficult. There is just a VERY small ridge on one side making it easy to get the terminals mixed up.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A good experience My order was easy to place, and payment was simple enough. Delivery was very quick - thank you. Sadly, the cable does not seem to be marked for core 1 or 2, so I will need to fiddle and test it after installation. Apart from that, very pleased.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Alway helpful and reliable I needed some speaker cable but had a budget problem. The guys at my local store have me advice on the best cable I could get for my budget and I'm very pleased with it. Richers Sounds is the only store I would consider when purchasing anything electrical.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good quality cable Clear sound, and flexible so east to bury in walls. Lack of +ve/-ve distinguishing marks makes wiring up more difficult
