Cheap co-axial wire is
most suitable for remote speaker connects and simple ellipticals or
dual cone ellipticals work well for this.
Co-ax for speakers? You live and learn.


I used to use the old thin stuff meant for 405 line TV but have ran
out.


The inner core would be 0.6mm so the return resistance would be quite
high per unit length.


It's acceptable. The greater linearity (lack of reactance) makes it a
much better choice.
