Actually those award winning speaker aint too expensive either, like QED Silver Anniversary XT (Product of the Year 2005, 2006 & 2007 awarded by What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision), you can get it for 4.84pounds per meter (around RM25) from http://www.futureshop.co.uk, shipping just around 7pounds, it's what I heard from forumer here who brought from futureshop.

Of course those are without any connector at both end
