Has anybody tried using single solid core cables?

At a recent hi-fi show an exhibitor auditioning $47K speakers repeatedly asserted the following: "Any solid core wire, even $0.03 a foot is better than any multi-strand available. Experiment for yourselves, you will be amazed."

My question before I ditch my multi-stranded Audioquest Indigo cables in favor of 4 individual single solid core 18 gauge cobber cables from Home Depot for my newly acquired SA Mantra 50s, has anyone tried using single solid core wires?

I've been wanting to try it out for years. I have rolls of solid core 12 gauge house wire doing nothing. No spades, just fold a loop around a pair of needle nose pliers and try it out.
Would'nt it be a pisser if I liked it better...?
