Quality is enough for the 2-wire speaker cables. The coax cable makes sense from the photo, but I personally I wouldn't have figured it out from the photo. Seems like a lot of ideas from the left-most cable but it seems too broad to be ethernet and especially telephone. It seems like power, based on width, but difficult to tell without a more direct view of the cross-section and preferably cutting some of the outer-most shelling to see the inner colors
EDIT: I disagree that the black and red colored frayed cables are power. Those colors are most frequently speaker colors AND frayed from being forced into speaker ports. You don't normally get fraying like that from power-related components (e.g. power outlets).
Thank you all! With a bit of testing, I've confirmed that the gray ones are speaker wires.
