I believe it is 16 gauge, and ridiculously expensive to boot. Check out this site (acessories4less.com) for higher gauge, cheaper flat cable. They don't appear to have the stuff I bought from them, but the new stuff is 15 or 13 gauge. Their customer service is first rate.

Edit: I can't tell if those wires are white or not! That could pose a problem... BTW, stay away from the self adhesive stuff; they sent me some of that by mistake and it was total crap. On the other hand, their new self adhesive wire doesn't look quite as bad, but the foam tape sold separately removes from the wall without taking the paint with it.

Wall mounting is fine, my VP150 Center and QS8's are wall and ceiling mounted respectively. Although I use Axiom's Full Metal Bracket, which I quite like (although it's angle isn't completely accurate, so my VP150 is off a bit).

As for cabling, I like 12 gauge. I ordered it in 175 feet bulk from Axiom, works lovely. Very solid cable. I have runs varying from 6 feet to 45 feet (up wall and across ceiling). Good stuff all around.
