I don't have any idea how much the cables cost in bd. but are u sure they will cost u $70 in usa....? i don't know, but i think they'll cost more....may be around $100. but if u can, get the cables from usa. obviously u'll get better cables fom usa......cables are important. bad cables can burn easily if u r playing ur music system too loud.

USA is a good option for purchasing wires if you're planning to visit there. there are many good stores that sell excellent quality wires. go for the thicker ones.

you'll find gud quality audio cables((yes I do mean audio cables from thicker to thinner acording to gauze) at the stadium market. It'll be a silly idea to get the audio cables from usa if you live here, it'll cost you too much. But if anyone imported those cables then it wud hav been gr8.

see, I don't know what kind of cables are available in BD....so can't really give u guarantee abt the cables in Bd....but I think Tawhid mentioned good cables are now available in Bd.....so if u wanna save some money then get it from Bd...and if u don't wanna take risk abt ur cable going bad, then u should get it from usa.....btw, if u r living in canada, then just get the cables from there. USA and Canada pretty much have the same thing. the quality of the cable doesn't differ.

sorry I didn know you are in canada. If you live in Canada then get it from there. It may cost you more but still you'll have plenty of choices there.
