Good cable
This cable is intended to transfer power from an Amp Head to a speaker cabinet so it's a quite different item with respect to signal cables used to feed the amp from an instrument.
To be clear, signal cables have to correctly transfer voltage signal while power cables have to transfer both voltage and current information, a power signal at the end.
Depending on the power of your amplifier, tens or even hundreds of watts can be handled by this class of cables.
It becomes really important that the dissipation of the cable is minimized; this aim is achieved when the resistance of the cable is minimized.
And the resistance is minimized when both the cable length and resistivity of the copper conductors are minimized.
This is the reason why I've chosen a quite short cable.
About the resistance, the value this cable exhibits is negligible: my digital multi-meter is not able to correctly measure it because so low that it's below the instrument accuracy.
I do not use the cable for high wattage and I'm really satisfied with its performance.
The only feature I would reconsider is the jack shape: because the place I use my amp, a 90 degree connector is preferable. This is something I suggest you to evaluate before buying but this is NOT an issue with the cable; it's simply a matter of personal use constraints.

It has not failed so far
It's been a year using this speaker cable. It has not failed nor cause any equipment damage and also does not introduce noise. Considering the price, it's a solid ten!

Simple, Cheap and Great
I've had this cable for a few years now and it has held up very well. I also own some higher end cables and I'd say quality wise this comes very close.
Never had any issues with the sound or the ends "unscrewing" or breaking.
- For the price you're paying, you probably can't get any better than this!

Does the job intended!
Using this on a Micro Orange head, and a Jet City 2x12 from thomann. Certainly does its job, What else is there to say!

I can’t find a cheaper yet more durable speaker cable anywhere in my local store

Does the job!
Top product, transfers the power to the speaker! Will see, how the nickel coating on the jack plugs stands the test of time.
I noticed that the silicone coating of the cable reacts with acrylic paint on my heating radiator, transferring the radiator paint to the cable. Chemistry miracles...

Reliable and long lasting
I actually bought this with a valve amp head that I no longer own about 17 years ago and while the amp is long gone the cable has stuck around through various moves, hundreds of gigs and several album recordings.
It might actually be one of the pieces of gear that I've owned the longest. While there's not normally a lot you can say about a speaker cable, the fact that such an affordable speaker cable is still chugging along for well over a decade and a half is a testament to what a solid purchase it was.
