I need 70' speaker wire and 40' RG6

I need them ASAP 40 feet of RG6 and 70 feet of 16 gauge speaker wire, tried craigslist which is dirt cheap but no one is replying to emails.. tried a shop in burnaby and they are charging .81 a foot for speaker wire, and .34 for RG6.. tried soundworks and he said $100 for 70 feet speaker which is $1.40 a foot.. anyone know a cheaper place?

I can sell you speaker wire for cheaper then that and I can order in some rg6 but you'd have to take the whole box not just 40 feet

Have you tried home depot because they sell bulk wire including speaker cable.

RP Electronics - 1000ft of RG6 dual-shield for $105 = 10.5c/ft; quad-shield 1000' for $128 = 12.8c/ft.

Just out of curiosity, what are you using RG6 for in the car? That's normally used for satellite... sometimes CCTV.

home depot is pretty cheap and convenient - you might even find roll ends in the bin for what you're looking for and it's super cheap then.

Ah, okay, I figured it was something car-related because, well, it's in "General Automotive Audio Video Entertainment & Security Tech"

I probably have a box of RG6 kicking around somewhere, or at least a small coil of it... we get it supplied to us now and then for jobs, but we tend not to use it, because RG59 is easier to work with.
