Speaker wire... Diy?

I am new to this, so please bare with me. I always thought 12 gauge speaker wire, bare on each end, was best. But there is Kimber, Nord, etc, that seem to be incrementally better! Can I buy the components and put together my own $17000 speaker wires? If so, where can they be purchased, and which are good enough to be used? Which terminations are best for sound? Which wire? Length? Guage?

"Is a violinist making music if no one is there to hear it?"

Unless it is a deaf violinist, there is someone there to hear it so she/he is making music. Assuming she/he did not just start practicing, If she/he did just start, it is probably far from music. Which depends on your perception. Voltage, chemicals, etc.

Elizabeth, thanks for the info. I only paid $10 each for them on eBay. They are 4' long. Is Kimber known for breaks in their cables?
