Im going to regret my cable question

Having regrets is a part of life.

@jl35 Cardas, more than most brands, has people who love them and those who do not like them at all...

When that occurs, ask which year, type, and cable model they’ve owned and tried.  If they are serious and actually tried 2-3 different versions for comparing, many with transparent systems can usually describe the differences about likes or dislikes of each version. Feedback about preferences can vary within the product line, also dependent on what is going on within the rest of that individual's system. 

One note with Cardas, I have an 8 foot pair of Clear Cygnus and due to the high capacitance, they triggered the protection circuit on my Bricasti M25. I find Canare 4S11 to be a very decent cable and dirt cheap compared to the others. 

"Coat hangers work just as well" isn't a theory. All you need is plain OFC. Other 'bells and whistles' won't make things better, but they can make things worse. Just don't tell that to snake oil cable manufacturers, or those who support them.

The ONLY thing you should be thinking about is how thick your coat hanger, er, OFC wire needs to be. 12AWG is what I use, but even that's overkill for my distance.

And the ONLY reason to spend ungodly amounts of money on speaker cables is if you want them to look pretty, as decoration in your setup. Because they will NOT make anything sound better. That is a fact, not theory, based on both measurements and double blind testing. It never fails.

Two speaker cables that sonically punch above their price point is Silversmith Fidelium and the Kirmuss Adrenaline.  At the OP’s gear level, I suspect it’s transparent enough to hear the sonic benefit.
