DYI cable


Hello.
I want to build my own speaker cables. Why? because I want to try!
After reading multiple sites/watching videos on doing that, I am left with two questions: is solid copper wire better than multiple strand? is silver coated wire better than plain copper?
Thank you.

Are you planning on fabricating the cable from scratch or using some brand of
bulk cable?

If fabricating from scratch - What cable architecture are you planning on
using?
- spiral, braided, parallel, twisted etc...

What is your budget?

How long are the cables going to be?

I've used silver coated for the signal conductor and copper for the neutral
conductor in a spiral architecture and they worked extremely well, but the
cables were short and as such were easier to fabricate than a longer cable
would be.

Regards
