I've just gotten my Banana Plugs from Monoprice, so I'm getting all my speaker wires cut and banana-plugged. I'm using a spool of 14 gauge wire. For the QS8s I'll be needing to make two cables of 35 to 40 ft as I'm going through the floor, then underneath and back through the floor into the wall where the QS8's will be mounted. Although the QS8s are only going to physically be about 18 ft away from the AVR, I'll need the extra wire to reach them. I know when you get into longer distances, gauge of wire becomes important. Is 14 gauge enough for a 35-40 ft cable.

TKS, Adrian
