Speaker Wire Quality

[CAB]

I use ~15% of my audio budget for "cables". That includes speaker wire and necessary interconnects. Super-upgrading one component or link in the chain will net you very little a performance increase.

What did your A/V supplier recommend?

506 Blu's (including ordered) -- wow

For stands check the following sites.

www.standsandmounts.com

And as everyone already said, go with cheaper speaker wire, about 14 gauge should be fine.

Yeah, those don't include combo packs like Star Trek (x6), Dirty Harry (x5), Matrix (x3), Bond, Batman, etc.

I'd check with your speaker manufacturer or the authorized reseller and see what they recommend for quality. I'm a snob and a bad reference for what the normal consumer should do but I do ask the advice of true professionals.

Stay away from Monoprice speaker wires. They are reasonably priced and should be avoided. Instead, you should buy 12ft of MIT Speaker Cables for $27,700.

Superconducting, and the signal arrives at it's destination before you send it.

There's no way I'm buying 12' for this much. I only need 10' for $400 less.
