Belden wire from Blue Jeans Cable?

I totally agree with the posters above. These cables have no sonic signature.If you don't like the sound..it's more than likely a component in the chain. Cables make a difference but this stuff can get a little over board. The LC-1s,Belden 1505F and Belden 1694A the digital cables are great.

Try some magnet wire..it's solid core copper. Plenty of places on the net just google it. I'm not a fan of stranded wire used as speaker wire. Or you could make your own solid core silver speaker wires. Silver foil is another option. CAT5 telephone cables make for some good wires too.

Since I didn't have time last night to post them, here's a few sites to buy or build your own cables Make your own audio cables,DIY Cat5 Speaker Cables. Here's another place to buy DIY components Diy HiFi Supply. You could use cotton tubing instead of teflon if you so choose. Once you make your own the chances are you'll own them for good with no urge to spend more.

Good listening

Bill..14 awg is just fine for 15 foot lengths. I use 16 gauge for the same length. I know of others that use 24 awg. The sound you get at the end really depends on how well your amplifier handles the load. Some like heavier gauges..it's more of a preference than wrong or right.

I find the smaller solid core gauges to have a much cleaner tighter sound over the the larger stranded gauges. Which too my ears roll off the highs and make the music sound fat and indistinct.

Here's a DIY Wire Gauge Calculator. You need Excel to run it. It also has a Damping Factor and SPL Loss Calculator included. You could actually use two different type gauges in each run. Make the negative side or return path slightly larger and tweak the sound.I could be wrong, but from what I've read and heard the dampening factor will change the sound of the speaker. Probably more than you wanted to know.LOL

Good luck
