Which flat spkr. cable to use


I need to connect B&W 802 matrix to Lev. 383 with some flat speaker cables about 7' long. I intend to run under the wall to wall carpet and in one place the cable will be stepped on by people walking on the carpet. All responses would be welcome! Thanks....Bob

I a/b compared the analysis plus to the Nordost SPM speaker cable. I used a biwire 5 foot a+ against two runs of spm 2.5 meter. I used both my vandersteen 5 and my audio physic virgo speakers (I doubled the A+up at the terminals) The SPM walked all over it. In fact the SPM is much better than any speaker cable I have heard. The A+ cable is a great cable and a far better value, but the Nordost was superior. The biwire A+ cable retails for 1/10th the cost of the two SPM runs. I have to wonder about some of these audio reviewers that have been going off on the A+ being the greatest thing since sliced bread. I tried both of these cables with two completely different speakers and found the same result. The Nordost SPM had far superior imaging and transparency. It wasn't even close. I found the same thing when I compared the pro-silway II interconnect to the nordost Quattro-fil. The pro-silway is a good cable and a far better value, but the Nordost cable drug it around good.
