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?

@uberwaltz Using Transparent Super Gen 5 Balanced for source and Plus Bi wires for speakers.  The new series outperforms the previous Ultra Level cables I was using.

At least Dave understood what I meant , yes it should have read MODEL not make but if that is the best you got it is going to be a loooong week!

Happy trolling...….

You also did not capitalize transparent. Are we supposed to be mind readers? It might be a long week for you but I suspect it will be a short week for me. Wink, wink 😉
