Thanks to everyone who replied. The comments/suggestions were very helpful and informative. I pulled the trigger today, and purchased two full-range speaker cable pairs (1) the AQ Robin Hoods and (2) AQ Thunderbirds, a step-up from the William Tells. Will try them both, and will return one.
One additional question has come up, based upon a couple responses. Several folks suggested I should connect the speaker cables to the bass speaker posts, and then jumper to the treble posts. AQ's US retail price book, on page 23, suggests the opposite, for 3 way speakers (I have B&W 802/D2's). Thoughts?
