Van den Hul The CS-122 Hybrid – 8 Metres for Front Left, Right & Centre Speakers
Give your system the boost it deserves. Van den Hul's CS-122 Hybrid is a musically dynamic yet smooth sounding speaker cable that manages to combine the qualities of copper, silver and carbon into an affordable package.
The CS-122 Hybrid is the next step up from the best-selling The Clearwater and boy is it worth the money! More substantial in every way, the CS-122 raises the bar in both clarity and musicality whilst adding increased dynamics and uber punchy bass. The best thing about the entire Van den Hul range is the total lack of fatigue when listening for long periods. Many cable brands tend to shout at you to get the message across but Van den Hul cables are faithfully transparent to the sound of the music and always leave you feeling relaxed after a listening session.
The 2 conductors are made of 147 strands of 0.16 mm. diameter high purity Matched Crystal Oxygen Free Copper with a very dense pure silver coating. Each conductor exhibits a cross-section area of 2.96 mm², equalling AWG 12.5 which means you will probably need to fit terminations. Covering the two conductors you will find an extra Linear Structured Carbon saturated layer to improve the sonic performance and to transform the radiated magnetic field into an audio-signal again.
QED Profile 79 Strand – 20 Metres For Rear Surround Speakers
QED Profile 79 Strand speaker cable is literally a legend in its own lifetime. 79 Strand remains the only cable ever to win the prestigious 'Federation Of British Audio Test Of Time' Award.

Carefully refined over the years, QED 79 Strand is the perfect choice for use with high quality audio components at the entry to mid-level price point.
QED 79 Strand cable gives you amazing performance combined with convenience to cope with the most demanding placement situations. 79 Strand uses 'figure 8' configuration which, combined with its great flexibility and rugged construction, makes it ideal for use in all installations.
QED Performance - 3 Metre Subwoofer Cable
It is rare for any surround sound system to come supplied with speaker cables and even rarer for it to come with a Subwoofer cable. Yes, they come with a power cable, but you need to connect the subwoofer to the receiver with another RCA type cable which has been specially manufactured to just handle the low frequencies.
For subwoofer cable duties we have chosen QED's Performance Subwoofer cable. This offers a very high level of screening when compared to normal line-level interconnects which is vital in ensuring that AC mains hum is absent from this delicate signal.
This subwoofer cable is part of QED's multi-award winning Performance range, renowned for extraordinary performance and exceptional value. It features dual electro-static shielding for enhanced signal integrity and quasi-balanced twisted pair geometry to provide a pure, noise free experience. And the use of best-in-class 99.999% oxygen free copper conductors ensures your Performance subwoofer cable will stand the test of time to provide you with the QED experience for life. Feel every throbbing bass beat with the QED Performance Subwoofer cable.
What You Get In The Pack
This is a 5.1 Surround Cable Pack which includes speaker cable to connect from your home theatre receiver or amplifier to five speakers. There is 8 metres of Van den Hul The CS-122 Hybrid speaker cable for your three front speakers. This is usually split into two 3 metre cables for your Left & Right speakers and a 2 metre cable for your Centre speaker. There is also 20 metres of QED Profile 79 Strand speaker cable for your rear surround speakers. The speaker cables have no plugs attached. The cables can quite easily be stripped back to reveal the bare speaker wire and can then be used without plugs. If you would like to use plugs that can easily be fitted at home, we recommend the Taga Harmony Banana Plugs. If you want to fit plugs to each end of all the speaker cables you will need a total of 20 plugs, 10 red & 10 black.
A 3 metre QED Performance subwoofer cable is supplied, with the usual RCA plugs fitted to each end, to connect from a home theatre receiver or amplifier to a subwoofer.
This is just one example of a surround sound cable pack. If you need to connect more speakers or more subwoofers please get in contact with us and we can assemble a custom pack just for you.
