Hi all.

I've been in the club for a while with my EP500 and QS8s but I've finally decided to ditch my Polk front 3 for Axiom's top front 3. Right now I am using 16 and 14 gauge cable in my system. The 14 is a no name brand, but the 16 is Monster THX cert that I use for surrounds. I'm just wondering if anyone's seen a difference with getting a thicker gauge to run their 4 ohm speakers. I found a few charts online that say a 4 ohm load should be able to run, undistorted, over 16 feet, on 18 gauge wire. But I always like to take a few opinions from the public as well.

I also plan to get your opinion on surround placements. Not just for 5.1 but with the possibility of 7.1 upgrade. I will take some pics and post my room later.

Thanks all,
-Justin
