Anybody try doubling different cables?

It seemed logical to me,to try to get the most cable between the amp and speaker for best performance, so have double runs of Clear Day solid silver and Acoustic Zen Double barrel - an effective awg of about 5 or 6? - and they sound spectacular - better than each individually. Interested to hear the experts' opinions or anybody that has tried similar set-ups with copper plus silver of different manufacture and design and resultant increased gauge wire?
Not hard to connect with a combination of spades and bananas on both ends- double spades and one banana per amp side and 4 per side on the biwired speakers.
System: EAR 868 preamp, SOTA 4 turntable, Bel Canto mono 1000 ref amps, SP Tech rev III speakers, Mcintosh MR 67 tuner (better than my ss CDP!!) KCI silkworm +, GG reflection, Cardas GC, Mogami neglex gold ics, Pangea 9 AC SE pcs.
Thanks for your input.

Last year,member Nonoise wrote a post about using the Clear Day speaker cables with other(cheaper) brands of copper speaker cables.

I have used the Clear Day Doulble shot-gun speaker cables with a DIY 14awg copper speaker cable. The two speaker cables used together were the best I have had in my system by far.

The combination of Silver Clear Day cables with almost any copper speaker cable will sound outstanding to very good.

The Doulbe Shot-Gun Clear Day cables were better sounding then the single shot-gun Clear Day cables when combined with the DIY copper cables.

BOTH WERE VERY GOOD SOUNDING.

But the Doulbe Shot-Gun Clear Day's were much better in every aspect of sound.
