Playing with speaker cables and amplifiers this morning. Have four sets here I have been switching between;
-fine stranded OCC copper wire,
12awg/run-bi-wired;
-multi-strand, 24awg, OCC solid-core copper in PE @ 11awg
aggregate/run-bi-wired;
-multi-strand, braided, high-purity solid-core, copper in cotton@12awg/MF-HF and 10awg/LF;
-Star-quad twisted WE16 and WE14 with 13awg/MF-HF and 11awg/LF.
Surprised, I was (saw Star Wars yesterday) that I liked the WE wire best, at least today. There is just something about this wire that sounds real, fleshed out, and smooth all at the same time.
I am sure that a bi-wire set with 13/11 awg is large enough for a 2M run but I will probably try this in the 10awg wire, just because I have some. I think I will do the star-quad twist to provide 7awg to the low frequencies and simply use the already twisted pair at 10awg for the MF-HF. I could then switch and put the 7awg on the MF-HF just for fun and to hear how it sounds.
Anyway, just thought I would share how this stuff continues to amaze.
