Duelund 16g Speaker Wire Question

Length is 3 meters, so around 10 feet per.  

Yes I'm using the 16g tin plated wire you listed.  
I wondered about twisting them so I'll try that.

From my experience with speaker wire, YES!

From my experience with speaker wire, NO!

From my experience with speaker wire, YES!

I have had more positive experiences with doubling (shotgunning) speaker cable than negative, but it does not always work.  IMHO, it depends on the amp(s) and speakers..

I bought the same wire a few months back after using Monster 2.4s (I think that's the callout) for a dozen years.  The Monster has hunkin' momma wire size.  Looks like #8 or so.  I had no issues with it, but as you know we all want to spend some more cash on our system every so often.  The Dueland is great on the high end.  And I think light on the bass.  I actually started a thread about wire size a couple weeks back to feel how others felt about wire gage and speaker size.  I'm gonna re-hook up the Monster on the low side (speakers are bi-wireable) and see if it gives them more of the great bass they originally had.  Speakers are Infinity Ren 90's powered by a Krell FPB300cx.  Then I may try the Dueland 12 gage.  I just feel the 16 gage can't handle the power requirements.  I relate it to trying to run a skill saw using a lamp extension cord.  It'll go round and round, but if you want to cut some serious wood, you'll want a good #10 extension cord.

Great analogy.

I agree. I always over-do it on cables. I run 12 gauge wires to my woofers and 14 to my mids and tweeters. Before I biwired, I used 10 gauge. But I also use speakers with side firing 12"s, so they like current. In general, for me, it’s usually not that much more to go up in diameter when building cables, so I do.
