And PSB also declares: Quote: What types of cables or interconnects do you recommend? PSB Speakers does not endorse any particular brand of cables. We usually use 14-gauge wire when testing speakers. Wire does affect sound and the best way to test this is to find an audio/video dealer who specializes in wire and ask for samples of different brands. We do recommend the following gauge of standard two-conductor wire for wiring distances: Less than 25': 18 gauge 25-50': 16 gauge 50-100': 14 gauge over 100': 12 gauge If you prefer, you can use heavier (lower gauge) wire. (Oh, Flat Earthers revolt!) ![]() [/quote] They are just stating the point we all make, wire only makes a difference due to length of run nothing more. |

They aint sellen it too well.
