Maybe once this is all straightened out I may think about the HiFi music stuff... | |
47 Labs Stratos OTA vs ribbon 4719 speaker cable The 4708 (26 gauge) is a bit more brittle than some of the other 20/22/25.5/26 gauge solid core copper wire I've tried. In my case the wire has been broken (@ the speaker post) a few times by one of our cats. I noticed that one speaker was "out"... | |
