Don't buy cables at all for your speakers, buy 14 gauge copper lamp cord.
Basically all cables sold at the typical sound store are an extremely
high mark up item. I have a source for cable that needs to have ends on
it that makes up cables for about 20% of what you pay at a retail store.


Actually, there is a measurable sound difference when you use the
better cable.


I call bologny.

There is no measurable electrical difference (unless the cables are
designed to alter the sound via added passive (RC) circuitry, in which
case you're hearing sound that has been degraded by the cables which
confirmation bias makes you think "sounds better").


In order to say that you must make a distinction in cable composition,
cable thickness, length of run, and possible need for shielding,
otherwise you are indeed spouting "bologny" (sic).
