I have read what Alan wrote about speaker wires. I do agree that if your wires cost, say, 1/3 or more as your speakers, than you may as well buy better speakers.

However, I also trust my ears that the speakers, when hooked up with decent wires, sound better than with no-name copper wire. This is my personla experience.

I would say that if one can't tell the difference, then please go with the cheapest wire possible.
