QED Performance Pre-Terminated Speaker Cable 2m
Most people don't buy a hi-fi system because they're fascinated by speaker cable. They buy one because they love music. But modern systems are full of choices. Amplifiers, streamers, turntables, speakers, DACs and enough cable options to make you wonder if you've accidentally signed up for an engineering degree. Performance Speaker Cable is designed to remove one of those decisions.
Built around a large 2.5 mm² oxygen-free copper conductor and QED's proven X-Tube Plus™ Technology, it delivers a low-resistance path between amplifier and loudspeaker, helping your system perform the way it was designed to. No mystery. No magic. Just sound engineering applied to one of the most important connections in your system.
Whether you're building your first proper hi-fi, upgrading from the cable that came in the box, or standardising a growing system, Performance Speaker Cable gives you the confidence that you've got this connection right.

About the QED QE7601
From our tech experts at CEN
The QED Performance QE7601 is a 2m pre-terminated speaker cable, ready to connect an amplifier or receiver to a loudspeaker straight from the box. It uses 2.5 mm² five nines (99.999%) oxygen free copper with X-Tube Plus construction and a low-loss LDPE dielectric. Factory fitted Airloc plugs and spades mean there is no stripping, twisting or crimping to do.
Who it suits
The 2m length is the one to pick when the speakers sit either side of the hi-fi rack or on stands close to the amplifier. If one speaker sits further away, measure both runs and look at the 3m QE7604 instead.
Our tech experts advise
Measure the route the cable will actually take, around furniture and along the skirting, not the straight-line distance. Use the same length for the left and right speakers so both channels see identical cable. Check whether your amplifier terminals suit plugs or spades before you connect.
