Sewell Ghost Wire 2.0, Super Flat Adhesive Speaker Wire, 16 AWG, 2 Conductor, 25 ft. Spool, White

Really easy to install the tape. We replaced our carpet and installed vinyl flooring so I wanted to hide all my speaker wires. Just to be on the safe side I sanded all the areas where the wire would stick to, but probably not necessary. Then I taped it all down with sticky masking tape so it would not more during the flooring install - again, probably not necessary. After flooring was in I installed the terminal blocks on top of the baseboard. They were challenging because the adhesive is sooooo sticky but I got it done. All works and sounds great!

I use this for doing audio in places where I have to cross traffic paths. It’s no thicker than gaff tape so it’s almost unnoticeableThe only issue is the connection blocks are a little janky, I tin the speaker wire, and when installing I tape the block and cables down tight. Granted it’s made for home use not what I do, but the stuff is amazing if you don’t want to see or trip on cables

I installed new laminate flooring. I did some research prior to my installation and found this wire. I wanted surround speakers on either side of my couch and this seemed to be the perfect product. Everything works as it is supposed to...well, except for the adhesive. Like many others on here, it just will not stick. I prepped the wall exactly as they instruct, but with no success. I ran this behind my baseboard and under my floor, so I am pretty much stuck with it. I will try to find a way to adhere it to the wall and paint it to blend it in. This is a really cool concept...just lacking in the adhesion department.

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.

While the idea is great and for the cost, it should be. The adhesive is to weak to deliver on it's promise. I spent days prepping walls and installing this "tape"wire. After 24 hours, I went down to prep for texture and paint to find ALL my wire laying on the floor. I was thinking I could add some rubber cement or mud the tape BUT, that is not what is advertised and felt with the amount of money spent, It should just work.With that being said, I never hooked it up to the system to test performance and quality. Why would I if it can't even stick to clean and prepped walls? I was trying to avoid fishing wire through the walls to avoid patching drywall. It would have been cheaper to fish the wire and patch drywall. It would have saved me at least 1 days work doing it the traditional way.Final thoughts: This would be a good product for bare drywall where you can mud and texture over the "tape". SAVE you hard earned money for good quality speaker wire, and pass on this misadvertised nonstick crap.

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 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.

Ran under the carpet to run my rear speakers. Don't know its there when you walk on it. Great solution to hide the wires.
