[QUOTE="JimGore, post: 419879, member: 3"] I like to use 20 awg on the tweeter and midrange, and 16 awg or larger on the bass. Obviously (sorry Oom Johan) I also like it better if the tweeter and midrange wire was of a good quality silver plated copper with multiple fine strands and with thin-wall PTFE insulation. For me, Kynar insulation would be even better, but I am yet to find that one in anything larger than about 28 awg which tends to be a bit too thin, more like voice coil wire. In the end you need to decide whether or not you are willing to try out different cables and listen to the results before deciding whether you can hear a difference or not. Personally, I have golden ears when it comes to this, and I keep them well polished and shiny :rubhands: :fuse: :angrywife: :flame: Ian [/QUOTE]
