Hi guys,
I am fairly new here and recently acquired Monitor Audio B2's from the classifieds here, which I intend to use as my rear speakers for a 5.1 system. I was going to buy cables last week, then after a chat with the people at the shop it seemed that is wasn't as easy as just buying and putting it in. I currently have the silver range LCR and they are connected with QED silver XT cables, but I don't want to spent that kind of money on my rears as I heard that they are not that important in the system. I want to go from my receiver to the roof and back down to the rears, which will be about 10-15 meters worth of cable per speaker. (I tried to search for something similar, but after reading through a few threads I just thought it is better to ask)
I was thinking I should get a roll of this:
https://www.sircony.co.za/product/monster-cable-100m-clear-2-5mm-2/
Will this be sufficient? Or can I get away with less (say the 1.5mm cable)?
Then also, I also want to get banana plugs to connect everything up. I saw these (It caught my eye because it was used in a youtube video that I watched):

But wouldn't the R10 jobbies from Communika do the job, I am probably going to need to buy 20 of it, or is there other ones that you guys can suggest?
Thanks
