Same Wiring of Speakers and Speaker Cables


Is it preferable to have the internal wiring of speakers be of the same brand as the speaker cable?

If you’re doing a rewiring project, I highly recommend tempo electric’s high purity solid core silver in an oversized Teflon jacket. They sell by the foot at very reasonable prices. No snake oil, just the highest quality, most electrically conductive wire, in the lowest dialectic insulation possible (mostly just air).

I already have their speaker cables and just bought enough to fully rewire my Coincident PREs last week. Replacing the binding posts with wago lever nuts as well so that I’m not having to energize big old chunks of metal just to start pushing a driver. The best binding posts are no binding posts. The wagos are low mass pure copper and clamp down really well. Rated for up to 600v @ 20a. They're worth hundreds, but only cost pennies.
