I just have a couple questions about speaker wire. I am assembling my Quad Sansui QRX 7500,
along with 4 channel Pioneer M800A amp. I went to get speaker wire to the local high end retailer,
and came away completely confused and blown away with all the fancy/shamcy wire available today.
It used to be that Monster cable was "Da Bomb", now they are saying that it has inherent RF interference,
bla, bla, bla, They are pointing towards a type of cable that is braided, and with between 4 to 8 seperate lines inside the cable.
Ok, I do understand the principles of braiding, magnetic fields etc... But how do you all feel about just some good old 12G monster cable. Will I get any better sound out of my system with this cable that will cost me close to $200.00 just for the cable??
Also, I was told that I should make sure to run the same length of cable from amp to eachof the speaks. regardless of
how far the distance is between the amp/speaks. i.e. something about the sound being to loud/
or out of phase with the speak. on a shorter cable?? Any thoughts??
(P.S. about 30 ft. to RF and LR speak, and 10 ft. to LF and LR speak)
Thanks,
Chris
