Misc electrical engineers, can I use any AC cable for my computer speakers?

I lost the cable but I found a different one that I use for my electric shaver. Cam I just use this? Will it catch on fire?

It should work. It’s not gonna catch fire unless your speakers Ampage is 10x what your electric shavers is or something , you’d have to overload it a lot for that to happen.


If it’s an AC cable it should have a sticker with a rating on it.

Speakers are generally low current (amperage) with a high voltage. Should be fine boyo but dont blame me if it's not

Watts = Voltage * Current.
