But He also made a whole bunch of alloys to "spice it up".

Em - another strong vote to say save your money on cables! Lamp wire works fine, but if you really want to get something new and designed for speaker cables, you can't go wrong ordering from Monoprice. I've got Monoprice run all over my house (one 80' run of 12 gauge to the deck and several 12-20' runs of 14 gauge in the media room). It all sounds flawless. Definitely save your pennies for something else you'll appreciate more than "better" cables. Also, welcome to the Axiom club. I have a pair of Algonquins (M3s in a weatherproof body) on my deck and love them. I actually kept them inside for close to 3 weeks because I made the mistake of setting them up in my game room to test them out. It was very hard to move them outside. That was about a year ago and I managed to live without them inside for that long... but as of a week ago I put down an order for another set to go in my game room. You won't be disappointed. Jason

Em, I'm late, but another welcome, another vote for the really excellent M22s, still another to stay with the lamp cord(it's all I use)and get any connecting cable needed from a low cost, no-nonsense source such as MonoPrice.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Another 12g Monoprice user here... Stuff is only about 25 cents a foot for the CL2 in - wall rated, the non CL2 is probably even less.

Another Monoprice customer here. There is also Blue Jeans cables. A little more expensive, but a reputable company as well.

I use Blue Jeans exclusively for my cable supplies. They source and assemble as much of their cable as possible in the US. But they did start Tartan Cable to provide lower prices to those who don't mind Chinese parts. That allows them to compete pretty well against Monoprice.
