As Albertporter stated, from a current carrying viewpoint all speaker wire size is overkill. I must admit that I have gone along with the heavy wire idea, although I have not used any of the specialized speaker cables with exotic construction.
Recently I tested some Nordist flat cables vs zip cord, and had to admit there was a very obvious difference. My plan of action is not to purchase $6000 worth of wire, but rather to purchase fan-free monoblock amps that I can loctate just inches behind my MG1.6 speakers.
