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....

Not in a human-audible region frequency region, no...

One can set up harmonic disturbances in super audible frequencies
which will be detectable at lower sub-harmonics in the audible
regions. Amplifier feed-back circuitry is often a culprit in that
arena. Feedback circuitry can create odd-order, non-fundamental
harmonics which are easily detected at minimal quantities, as opposed
to the lush even order harmonics we love to hear in large doses up to
10%. After all, how else do we tell a Bb from a Baritone sax from a Bb
from an alto? Even order harmonic distortion tells us the difference.
The expression THD totally destroys all credibility of the number
Total Contamination 20% cream, 1% sand= 21 TC useless number. But I
digress.
