Wife stepping on speaker wire

PURIST AUDIO DESIGN DOMINUS CABLES ARE PYTHONS, IN ADDITION THEY WORK VERY WELL. AND STEPPING ON THEM WILL NOT HURT THEM I TRIP ON MINE ALL THE TIME.

Have you thought about carrying her when she is in that room?

.........rig the necessary bare wires, plugs, etc. and occasionally plug the speaker cables into a 110 outlet. She'll probably only step on them one more time..........

Hughes, everyone's having fun with this. Just get cables long enough to push back to the wall and out of the way. Use 12 gauge or lower, and the few extra feet will not degrade the sound. In answer to your question, Audioquest cables are thick and obvious. Kimber 8tc is pretty bright and obvious. But I think an appropriate length to get the cables outof the way is what you need.

One thing you could do is buy you a REALLY cheappair of speaker stands made from MDF, sit them between your amp and speakers, and use them as a cable props. If this does not work find you some yellow "POLICE LINE - DO NOT CROSS" tape and string it up from wall to wall in front of your entire system.
