Will this speaker cable work with my Logitech Z906?

I have a Logitech Z906 5.1 PC speaker system.

I need to extend the cable for one of the rear speakers; ideally to 10 meters.

Would the below speaker cable work fine?

If not, what should I be looking for?

The cable has no real spec, so we don't know whether it's all copper (a good thing) or copper coated aluminium which is more likely with cheap unbranded speaker wire, and also a bad thing.

Will it conduct a signal? Yes

Will it do so without appreciable loss? Very unlikely; poor material and very very thin conductors.

Will it be easy to join onto the existing wires? If you're bodging it by twisting the wire the wrapping in sellotape, yeah, sure. If you're trying to make a neater join by soldering and covering with a bit of heatshrink, then no. The aluminium core will just melt.

From eBay, look up item number 324653684608. Select 10m of the round twin 0.75mm 14Amps. The price should come up at £8.97 inc postage.
