I use 12 AWG stranded copper low voltage cable. I get it from Home Depot. They call it landscaping cable because the sheath is rated for outside use. It comes in black which I wanted instead of the clear "speaker cable". It costs CDN$1.87 per meter.
I have tested it against low end and medium range Monster cable. If there is a difference I can't hear it. DBT HAS found a difference between cables of too small a gauge and large guage cables due to resistive loss & capacitance. No DBT test has ever documented the performance claims of the high end cables vs appropriately sized stranded copper cable. Feel free to pay more if you want. -- Eric Carroll Transporter-Bryston 3B SST-Paradigm Reference Studio 60 v.4 SB3-Rotel RB890-B&W Matrix 805 SB3-Pioneer VSX-49TXi-Mirage OM7+C2+R2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Carroll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9293 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32454 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
