Due to questions of the accuracy of the 50 ft spools furnished by Metra, Sherco is now buying large bulk spools and respooling the 50 ft size ourselves. We GUARANTY the 50 ft spool will be 50 ft.

I cannot speak to the length of the cable issues posted here but when I connected these to my new Sony speakers (replacing the stock speaker wiring) there was a noticeable difference. The sound was much warmer, and the midrange presence was more noticeable.

I should have listened to other reviews that noted you do not actually get 50 feet of this wire. My set-up required 46 feet and this came up very short and I was left having to order another "50 feet", meaning I'll be left with loads of extra wire. This is just bad business. Most times you'd get a bit of extra wire; I've never heard of a company selling you less than what's advertized.

This was a great price for what you get. I used it to run speaker wire from my amp to my speakers in my car. I found no problems with the product.

The cable looks fine. The wires in the two sides are different colors, one side gray and the other side copper. I give it one star because my first roll and a replacement roll both measured 46 feet. I need 50 feet. Some reviewers received less than 45 feet. If you need only 44 feet, it's probably a good deal. If you need 50 feet, it's a nuisance.
