AudioQuest vs StraightWire?

Anyone have recommendations on which company would have better speaker cables for home theater for B&W 805 speakers?

I also thought the bass was a little fuller with the encores over the audioquest. Though for speaker wire I tend to like some of the tara labs better (was using tara labs "space and time").

But you have to listen for your self and see. ENJOY THE MUSIC!!!

Definately tames the bright tendencies of the 805s. Good luck, Joe Custom Audio LLC
