May I suggest looking in the current issue of "The Absolute Sound"? There is a wire review/comparison with a startling conclusion. A wire sold as an extension cord by Home Depot beats out some of the more esoteric brands. TAS advises just cutting off the ends and terminating with appropriate plugs. Frankly, to my ears, I can't hear a difference in any adequate wiring. As long as the wire can handle the power, is well-built with good connectors, it's ok with me!
