Interesting stuff... What we think we can hear...
Regarding the official Axiom line, its also interesting to note that they regard their bulk 12-gauge speaker wire to be the perfect connection (with quality connectors) to their speakers. I happen to believe this. But it also means that about $60 (and 20 mins of labor) should get you set up for speaker wire. It would be interesting to know what percentage of us paid more....
I have a Carol Command, made by Belden, OFC cooper silver plated, that Parts Express used to sell, a regular ZIP wire 12AWG, also IIRC Home Depot used to sell it, with some Dayton Bananas, and period...no doubt that with a little more elaboration I could get nicer cables, but nobody will see them anyway...Unless those get rusted, you will not see me getting any other...
As per IC's Blue Jeans Cables all around...
