Have you ever skinned a speaker cable?


I'm thinking about removing the outer cover from some speaker cable
and using just the inside wire.

The cable is just too unbendable as-is and I think I have enough to cut in half and double-up (make 10 gauge into 5 gauge).

Anyone try this before?

"Why would you do that??"

"Because it's there".

Seriously, the Pro-9 is more than 15 years old and I'm thinking of new speaker wire in the near future.

I wanted to strip off the outer casing to see how the inner wire would sound on its own.

For new wire I'm thinking: Wireworld Eclipse-7, Synergistic Element Tungsten, Nordost Tyr/Valhalla series I or Shunyata Python Ztron.

Anyone have advice?
