Resistors

what wattage are you looking for?
I like Mills, Path and if you can find them in your value, Riken and Shinkoh.

What type of wiring do you recommend

FWIW, I used Straightwire 18 ga solid on my new boards anywhere the cap or resistor leads were too short (or with foil-type coils which have no leads). But I used Cardas litz from the terminals to the boards and boards to the drivers  (various gauge depending on input or output and woofer versus coax board). I made no attempt to sonically compare the Straightwire to anything else but did compare the Cardas to the OEM 18 ga solid (unknown source).

'Good 1% resisters of the same value always sound the same'
That's so sad. Some people are incapable of, or unwilling to hear the difference.

I can't directly answer the question but can tell you that Mills are smooth and way better than the cast 'white' monsters that sound bad anywhere they are used, especially in power supplies.
Mills are great for low-pass and as shunt resistors but I find them a little too smooth in series with mids or tweet. I have been experimenting with Powertron,  a Vishay foil resistor which is vivid and displays fine detail and a brilliance that lights up the top end. This is not to be confused with brightness.
 The Powertrons are rated at 3W or 30W when mounted on a heatsink.

what wattage are you looking for?

7 watt.

I decided as follows:

- medium-high pathaudio
- woofer mills mra12

Thanks again!

Use Duelund DCA 16 gauge on the mid driver.  Use the 12 gauge on the woofer.  Both are stranded copper wire in oil impregnated cotton.  Great sound.
