Blue Jeans Cable Canare 4S11 Speaker Cable, with Ultrasonically-Welded Conventional (Non-Bi-Wire) Terminations, (One Cable - for one Speaker); Assembled in The USA (8 Foot, Black, Bananas to Bananas)

I have spent a lot of money on cables throughout the years. Cables that promised liquid, velvet, chocolatey sound. Cables that cost a lot of money in order to justity these companies exorbitant advertising budgets. Cables that frankly, were overpriced and underdelivered on the lofty expectations of this audio enthusiast (Audioquest & Transparent, I am looking at you). Unfortunately, audiophile consumer has no regulations or checks and balances. Snakeoil salesmen can peddle the prettiest cable you have ever seen and convince you that you will hear things you have never heard before. It's kind of like the vitamin industry, take this little green pill and every ache and pain you feel will magically disappear, until the next little blue pill comes along and they need to convince you that you cannot live without it. That is how the audio cable industry operates, they convince you that a problem exists and promise you the world towards solving this supposed problems if only you buy their cables. It's all a load of nonsense. Now, what you get with a Blue Jean speaker cable is going to be great sound without the bells and whistles or hype that these other beautifully made speakers deceptively promise. I am ashamed to say I have fallen for the hype, beautiful cool looking cables and cables with little boxes on them that promise to filter out junk. I can honestly say I heard no difference in audio quality when I switched out my Transparent MusicWave speaker cables and subsituted the Blue Jean cables. Listen, a well shielded, well made and terminated cable like the BJC will perform at audiphile levels without lightening your wallet. Go out and sell your gorgeous flashy cables to some other sucker that doesn't know the electrical engineering, physics and science behind good sound. Are these cables beautiful works of art? Well, if your idea of a work of art is a well crafted product with attention paid to quality and price then heck yes. This is a beautiful cable that will make your music sound "liquid", "velvety" and "chocolatey" all without the added price so that you can spend that extra cash you saved buying these on liquids, velvet and chocolate. Stop reading this review and buy these cables if you are interested in great sound, affordability and no audiophile B.S. Don't repeat my mistakes purchasing expensive cables that promise the moon and only deliver in draining your wallet. Thanks for making great cables BJC, we all owe you a nice drink someday.

The best adjective I can use is "Superb." Typical Blue Jeans Cable quality and attention to detail--fit and finish is second to none.

Great cables at a reasonable price.

Perhaps the best speaker cable to consider, more so for longer distances. I got the 40 ft each for the surrounds and 10 ft for the fronts and all are working perfectly great providing superb connectivity. These come with good quality banana plugs pre-installed on both ends, which makes it very easy to plug in to the speakers and the receiver.

These cable for a while I heard make cheap speaker sound beautiful. Can you imagine with top of the line speaker. I have 2 Polk e20 130w each,haaaaa even more beautiful.

These are very good cables for the $$$. One MIGHT find better cables ? but I think for most systems one can't do better. These don't make bass bigger and boomy, the highs sing like some ultrasonic nonexistent bird song or make the sound see through the walls to the next room. Rather in simple terms These are well made , neutral yet clear sounding. I'll try to avoid audiophile speak but will give some background for my opinion. The system these live on is a Yamaha Aventage RXA 1070 and wired to the the front and center channels. The front end is a few streamers with 4k and Atmos, a Sony 4k Disc player with SACD playback , and a too expensive but my joy analog vinyl playback, which is an EAT C-major tuntabele , Ortofon Blue Moving Coil Cartridge, IFi Phono2 preamp, IFi tube buffer and Shunyata interconnects for this to the Yamaha. The Yamaha is then used in Direct Mode for Vinyl listening. The main speakers are B&W CM1-S2 on Sanus stands in medium room. This setup can provide an intimate listening environment. Basically the cables are based on good science. The Canare wires are fully spec'd at their web site ( no magic sauce), Blue Jeans put terrific locking bananas and the welded the wires ( not soldered) to those bananas. You can stop here and read all the other opinions about all the different solutions to ' problems ' that some manufactures ' fix ' with their designs. Maybe some of these do work, but at what cost? Are they worth the expense? For me and my system and pocket book I don't think so. So i offer some other background fwiw that helps to inform me on what I noted. I am an amateur musician, have attended many live acoustic concerts with real instruments ( no sound systems to amplify anything ) have been to huge rock concerts , have done sound mixing when I was younger, I have had some very good 2 channel systems but cost restricted the extent of this hobby. My work encompasses being an electronics tech with background in audio tube circuits from years back, solid state design, RF and now computer networks ( I work now in the video surveillance industry). I use my critical thinking in this hobby of audio . Add to this having developed critical ear for listening over the years . I've also had opportunity to hear the over the top multi-thousand $$ systems with all the uber expensive wiring etc in those systems, yes these were GREAT but only affordable by the ' 1 % ' , making a sensible choice for magical wiring is sometimes hard to do. To reduce the chance of buyers remorse I researched the ' high end ' claims and the systems these are used on. I've read some very good reviews by respected audio industry journalists and also research the products noted to discern science fact and reasonable expectations what a piece of wire can , and cannot do. These wires are just well made , easy on the budget and I believe will work very well in most systems. And that's my opinion.

I have started listening to my albums again and making upgrades to my system. I had my speakers connected with the see through plastic covered speaker wire that I bought probably 45 years ago. So I thought why not new speaker cables. I connected them today I had to turn down the bass on my preamp and adjust my phono preamp since I was getting so much more bass. Don't know how any other cables could be better. To me $140 is a lot for speaker cables, but I'm glad I spent it on these.

Great speaker cables for 2 main reasons 1. They sound just as good as some high end cables I have purchased in the past 2. These have the self locking tightening feature that other speaker cables lack. I never have to check to make sure I have a tight connection due to gravity and time making the cable a bit loose These work perfectly

These Canare 4S11 speaker cables with welded locking bananas built by Blue Jeans Cable (BJC) are excellent in my system (Harbeth LS3/5a with Yaqin MC-100B). I owned a pair of speaker cables for over 25 years, which produced good midrange and warm sound. After I hook up these Canare 4S11 speaker cables, they open the sound stage, the bass gets tighter and more controlled, the mid and high are warm and sweet, the biggest improvement is these Canare 4S11 have more details, I didn't know there were so much I missed in the music. I really like the locking banana plugs, they are securely connected to amplifier and speakers. BJC really did a good job welding these banana plugs, the craftsmanship is very good. The Canare 4S11 cable itself is high quality too - do a Google search, you will find a lot of good reviews about these Canare 4S11 cables. I compared these Canare 4S11 speaker cables with Ten White speaker cables (built by BJC too). Ten White speaker cables are good cables too, but they are too bright in my system. Overall, I really like Canare 4S11 speaker cables built by BJC, excellent quality, reasonable price, and produce good sound in my system. Highly recommended.

Excelente calidad de materiales y construcción. El sonido es subjetivo pero en mi experiencia si hicieron una diferencia positiva en la claridad del sonido.

Very very nice and well built cables but the banana plug tips are horrible for my binding posts. Too big they just don’t fit and break apart if I use some force.

Tive um pouco de dificuldade com o plug , mas foi só encontrar o ponto de conexão certo ( Borne ) e tudo funcionou.

These speaker cables are solidly constructed, sound great and offer incredible value. This is the second set I’ve purchased, and I wouldn’t consider another brand. No snake oil here, simply top-quality speaker cables that look great, won’t fall apart, and thanks to their locking banana plugs, will never come loose, compromise a connection or disconnect while moving gear around. These are all the speaker cable anyone needs. If you have too much money, and for whatever reason, absolutely must get rid of a bunch of it, then by all means, buy speaker cables the price of a new Benz. However, if you’re someone who prefers to hold onto as much of your money as possible, while still achieving high-quality sound, then Blue Jeans speaker cables are exactly what you need.
