Sewell Ghost Wire 2.0, Super Flat Adhesive Speaker Wire, 18 AWG, 4 Conductor, 50 ft. Spool, White

Choosing a strategic location for the Ghost Wire can affect its visibility. I tried to butt it against corners, door frames, and base board to minimize its visibility.Likes: It gets the job done without needing to drill through walls, floors, or ceilings and then "fish" for speaker wire behind the wall or between joists; After working out the first connection to a terminal, the rest of them were easy to do; When I connected my speakers, it worked the first time and I have had no problems with the sound; Without doing any feathering or texturing, It took a coat of paint and matched the existing wall color perfectly (I have to point out the tape to people in order to get them to notice that it's there.)Dislikes: Although we had freshly painted walls (professionally done), the adhesive likes to come loose in a few places even though it was thoroughly pressed against the wall upon installation (It's not the worst thing in the world but I don't like to see any gap between the tape and the wall); I needed a little more Ghost Wire than was on the 100' reel so I ordered another 25' which is not on a reel and had a lot more bubbling (didn't easily lay flat on the wall); At over a buck per linear foot, it is a bit too pricey to use in every room; the folded corners do have a tendency to stand out, literally.NOTE: You still need speaker wire to run from the terminals to the speakers (I have wall mounted speakers and use about 1 foot of regular wire per speaker) and from the terminals on the other end to the amplifier or other source. If you order banana plugs (either solid or braided wire) with the terminals, the plugs do not fit into the holes in the terminals and you have to use bare wire. If they would manufacture the terminals with slightly larger holes, it would be excellent. Maybe someday they will.

The product works asadvertised, good stuff. Cons, doesn't lay fully flat, painting over it won't really work well. **1 thing, this stuff has no shielding at all. I rant it over concrete to lay under LVP flooring. Due to the lack of shielding it really seemed to amplify my previously quiet ground loop hum to intolerable levels. I didn't have this problem on any other speakers, fyi. All that said, would still recommend for many applications.

Before I begin I will note that I hold a Bachelors in Recording Arts and I studied audio in college. I built audio equipment, and I take it fairly seriously. I wouldn't personally use GhostWire to wire a studio, but this is for an entertainment center.I found this product by accident while searching for a solution to run speaker wire across a floor under a rug in an ultra-low-profile.I did some research and watched a few videos to make sure it seemed to be what I wanted and then ordered a roll and some of the terminal blocks.If you are not getting the terminal blocks then frankly any problems you have are with yourself, this product works beautifully - and I won't lie I kind of had my doubts and thought I was sinking some money into a pipe dream.No this stuff is awesome!The most difficulty I had was in laying straight lines without a guide - something I should have thought to do was mark out my path ahead of time and square it but I was too excited and went straight to taping. Luckily the floor is covered by the aforementioned rug and the wall section by a wall tapestry.The GhostWire is currently powering my rear channel speakers in a 5.1 setup.I am so satisfied I reached out to Sewell to let them know. I intend on using GhostWire for future installations as well.I have not tested how well it takes spackle/drywall mud and paint, since I opted to cover with a wall tapestry as I know I will have to uninstall it eventually.Finally, the tack on this is pretty great. The stick factor is impressive, even dealing with our slightly textured wall like a champ. This stuff is thin, not quite paper thin, I would put it about as thick as two razorblades stacked - tapered at the edges with a gentle slope. This is barely noticeable and before the rug was put down I was able to drag a coffee table over the installed wire without it catching/hanging.Edit 6/20/19: this stuff is still going strong and has even survived the first ten months of my daughters life. It's getting uninstalled soon for a move, but I intend on using this product again when I rebuild entertainment in the new home.

I recently redid a room and needed to run surround sound. It wasn’t planned initially so I had to find something that would run under a rug pad and rug. I searched and found Ghost Wire! Is it a bit pricey? Yes. Is it freaking worth it? Hell yeah! It’s super flat, the copper is a nice thickness and it’s STICKY! If your surface is not clean, it won’t stick well. Have a clean surface? It’s not coming off without some damage - KEEP THIS IN MIND!!Used this along a painted concrete floor. Worked exceptionally. Easy to install and put in place. I now have surround sound and you can’t even tell it’s there!You must use the connecting block! It’s designed to connect the flat wire to your speaker wire. Don’t cheap out.Highly recommend this if you need super flat, hidden wire.

The wires work as you would want and if you color match them to the wall they are near invisible which is what I wanted. Now the issue I have is that they do not stick to the wall very well. I have plaster walls which might be part of the issue. I cleaned the wall with soap and water and fully dried the wall be for I stalling. After a day for so the tap started to lift off the wall, I am going to try some glue to get it to stay down. Maybe this tape will stick better to dry wall that isn't as textured as plaster, I'm not sure. Still a good product if you are trying to hide wires but don't want to drill holes and run thru walls.

Fast delivery and exactly what I ordered

Tape is unforgiving once it’s down you can’t move it without ripping up paint

Good

Great product and is exactly as described. Easy to install and literally invisible.Thanks

No issues.
