Leon, I wouldn't argue that the speaker wire is ideal, however in my application it seems to work just fine. I would prefer a pure coax cable but I would prefer not to pay to have all the existing wiring removed and replaced since it is a long run behind walls, etc.

Update: I just had the ends spliced with a good quality coax cable that was purchased specifically for this job. So far, so good. Signal is very clean (indistinguishable from pure RCA/COAX) and the only real issue if you can call it that is that there is a soft hum when the AVR is turned off...

Thanks. You don't think there will be a problem using a(n) in-wall speaker cable(s) that a(re) pretty long run (probably about 50+ feet)? Also any way to do this without soldering?

Just had an in-wall speaker install done (7.2) in my family room. The installer said he was going to run coaxial into the wall for my sub pre-out but ended up running standard 16 gauge speaker wire (two lines) instead. I would still like to hook up these wires to my Onkyo TX-RS707 sub preouts...
