Inexpensive speaker cables: any experience?

About thirty years ago I bought some stranded, silver coated, 12 gauge wire. I still have two, ten foot lengths with the ends tinned with silver solder. While they aren’t on my main system, they were until I bought a pair of AQ Rocket 88’s.

All the best.

Unless speaker wires are very thin or have something in-line to alter the flow of electricity, there's no difference despite what Crystal Cable and Nordost tell you. 

Depends on amps and speakers.

My digital amp needs a lower current but different config than my analog amps.

My Maggies like a fire hose, Proac’s and Maggies dont need that much attention. 

Wire wound and tie with ends. Sound like can with string, like walk talkie. Magic word like I don’t know not part from lip, truth not be in them like fisherman, and breath smell of strong drink.

Long answer,  nobody know until tie on radio. 

@muvluv What if I told you gold was a significantly inferior conductor to copper?  about 30% more resistance. So  your solid gold speaker wires would have to be heavier gauge.....
