About Us

Mains-Cables-R-Us Ltd has a clear mission, to help people get more pleasure from listening to their hi-fi system or watching their AV system. This is what we want for all our customers and we aim to help you through the correct choice of cables.

We make products that work and will not sell you something you don't need. We treat our customers the way we would expect to be treated ourselves. Based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, we are here to help.

The mains supply is often mis-understood and any discussion about mains leads or cables always ends with heated arguments and dissent, how can a piece of wire affect the sound or picture quality of my system people often ask, well, please read this article on the mains supply and you may begin to understand it for yourself.

The Mains-Cables-R-Us website and on-line shop does not have a minimum order charge, if you just want to try a silver plated mains plug or clean your existing plugs with our de-oxit contact cleaning wipes, feel free to try our site out. Our website has been described as an alladin's cave so please feel free to explore it in detail.

One final thing, if there is something we do not list that you need, I may be able to help you so just send us an e-mail, or telephone us. We make cables to individual's specifications if required. In addition we sell speaker cables,HDMI leads, hi-fi equipment such as CD players and loud-speakers, phono leads, digital cables and jumper leads.

To anyone who does not think mains cables make any difference, this is a recent comment from one of my customers after I asked him if his cables had arrived yet:-

Did they... Did they?!! The house doesn't know what hit it...!! Well let me tell you what... I do have a very good sounding well matched system anyway. But I have definitely improved the tightness of bass and also improved the separation of sound when lots of instruments are involved and the sound is full. So I am very pleased indeed. And your cables are very smart indeed - very professionally put together. There's a few years experience there!!! Unfortunately I have taken them off for now... the wife will be insistent as they are for Christmas! I won't tell her I rocked the house earlier!

All our cables are burnt in and tested prior to despatch, any comparative listening or testing is done using our own system which is a Technics SL1210 with Jelco SA750-D arm and Denon 103 cartridge and an Oyaide MJ-12 Turntable Mat, Oyaide PA-2075R tone-arm cable, Canor Tube Amp & CD Plater, Isotek Sigmas Mains Conditioner and Revel loudspeakerss, we also use a Squeezebox Touch for streaming ripped CD's.

We can be contacted by e-mail (always answered within 24 hours, usually 1-2 hours) and by telephone on either our landline or mobile.

Please note we answer the phone all day every day, weekends included. All the products we sell have the relevent CE approvals where appropriate.

We provide a 30 day money back guarantee on everything we sell. T & C's apply.
