Home Depot Ext. Cord for Speaker Cable

I was wondering if anyone who has actually tried this themselves could comment on the results. I currently use 14g Monster wire with mostly McIntosh tube gear.

What might I expect to sound different?

Is it the "Rigid" brand that Home Depot sells that people use?

What do you do with the third wire?

Any other constructive feedback will be appreciated as well. Thanks,
Bill

I have a pair that I sometime use. Mine are "Commercial Electric" branded from Home Depot. It is the orange cable with thick black line running the length of the cable.

I connected the black and green wires on both ends together and use it for the (-) side. I use the single white run as the (+) side. It sounds pretty good and only cost about $15 for the experiment.

Enjoy,
