Anyone compared Premium AC wire to regular romex?


I am curious. Am getting ready to build a dedicated room, with dedicated AC Lines and was wondering if there really is a SOUND difference in the premium AC wire (Virtual Dynamics, JPS, etc.) compared to regular good ole' Romex??

Does the extra cost really go beyond just having the overall benefit of dedicated AC lines?

Regarding the use of "custom" in-wall or ac wiring, isn't it more important to have a wire that is as neutral sounding as possible? Why would you want your in-wall wiring to add an effect which may or may not really be positive. Perhaps a person might like this upgrade in some situations but perhaps not in others.

I would say that as long as the dedicated wire is shielded and has the ability to deliver good current as per your components needs, the improvement yielded should be enough for that type of upgrade.

If I am to color the sound, I'd rather have more control of it downstream. I could be wrong though.

I'd like to see what others may write about this too.
