Cheap multicore speaker cable

[Phil]

Hi everyone.
I found a great website ages ago with cheap grey 2.5 8core cable on. Unfortunately I have lost the site and cant find it.

Does anyone know any good sites where I could get some cheap 2.5 cable say anything from 2-8 or more cores. Pref no more than 100 quid. Last time i spotted 50M of 8 core 2.5 for about £75.


I was thinking of using extra cores to run foh and mons from the amp rack on the one cable. just for quicker setup with a breakout box on one end.
Good or bad idea?

Ahh I remember where I found the cable. RS electronics shop.

Still any other suggestions would be helpful

no no lol
Im just gunna get some 4 core instead.

I was just thinking of ways to make it faster setting up.

Anyways... I would NEVER touch a long speaker multicore again after my time when i rigged up Durham cricket ground with about 400 meters in total of 8 core! Even the 50M lengths were bad for wrapping up myself! Not sure what was worse, pushing the trolley loaded with bose 802s, court p200 boxes and tannoy cabs on across the grass or that!
