coiling speaker cable

Cable Asylum

Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Hi all,
I have a pair of XLO ultra 6 cables that are longer than needed. They have XLO spades on each end and one end has pigtails with XLO spades for speakers that have two sets of binding posts. I really don't want to shorten the cable so I was going to coil the extra length behind each speaker.

If you not familiar with the cable, it is made of many very small. separate. strands of OFHC copper in PTFE coating. Each group in covered with PTFE. Is there a problem coiling about 5 feet in about a 1 foot diameter coil? The cables won't be near any other cables or AC power cords.

Thanks,
henrylr
