Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Raptor S14-100 100-Feet 14 Gauge Speaker Wire (Clear)

Customer Review: How can the length be so far off???
Summary: 3 Stars

It's 14 ga. wire as advertised. Well jacketed with thick, clear poly and it came in one piece. Problem is, that one piece was a little less than 90' long, or 10' shorter than advertised. I guess if we keep writing about it here and tell Amazon customer service about it, dummies (like me) will stop buying it and maybe they'll either get a new supplier or just tell them to stop shipping less than advertised. The thing that I don't understand is, who measures this stuff? Do they just stand there and guess how much is on each roll? It can't be a metric/inch conversion thing, some people are complaining about being shorted 30'. Someone is deliberately shorting these rolls. Has anyone, honestly, ever received a roll with more than 100' on it? I didn't think so.

Customer Review: Got 90 Ft
Summary: 3 Stars

The wire is rather nice, better than I expected. It is easy to distinguish between the 'red' and 'black' cables as the wires are color copper and silver. Not sure about the performance yet as I just installed it yesterday. It is definitely 14 Gauge, but is not even close to be 100 Ft long. I measured the length that I needed to cover for two speakers 45 Ft for two speakers. to my surprise and after cutting at 45ft the rest of the cable was exactly the same length! this is 10Ft less than expected.

Customer Review: Great wire, but short
Summary: 4 Stars

This is great speaker wire but as many others have pointed out, you will NOT get a full 100 feet so don't expect that. I had measured what I needed fairly well and ordered 2 spools of this wire (200 feet) and ended up about 30 feet short between the two so I had to order a third spool and this time I ordered from one of Amazon's partners who claims that they cut their wire from larger spools and guarantee the length - so we'll see if this spool is the proper length or not.

Customer Review: Not 100 ft only 70 ft
Summary: 1 Stars

I read the earlier reviews and was hoping that I would get lucky and get a full 100 ft of this wire. They really short you on the length. For what you receive I don't believe its worth the cost. I guess you get what you pay for. In this case NOT even close. I wish there was a way to contact the seller to let them know what a dis-service they are providing. The wire is great, The length is where they stick it to you. :o( Not happy.

Customer Review: Not 100 feet
Summary: 1 Stars

As someone else already pointed out, this is not 100 feet. I ordered two of these, and one was about 80 feet, while the other was closer to 70. This made wiring a little more difficult since I was planning on those 100 feet, only to find out near the end, that I didn't have enough. They work great, but since I payed for 100 feet, and only got about 2/3 of it I am very disappointed.
