Re: CAT5 as a loudspeaker transport

["Nick Towers" <nickt@xxxxxxx>]

Have not done the speaker connections but a friend of mine did, using 
4 of the 8 Cat5 wires in parallel for each terminal. It works but I 
wouldn't vouch for "hifi quality" of it, also, probably best not
to 
attempt to drive too much power through CAt5.

The phone I have done & it's 100% fine.
