ATC SCM19 V2 Recommendations.
Those are some great looking cables...i saw those some time back.I will add that that pro/driver likes some awg to get it grunting.I used a pair of diy mogami 3104 "8.5 awg" and some of the low notes that came out that speaker were impressive.fwiw.  
Solid core OFC vs stranded OCC copper
"I recognize that it's very difficult to make comparisons where only one factor has been changed"... Yet it is just that 1 thing that makes the audible difference and the diy thing worth trying in the first place.period.  
Cheapest but good cables….
Yet to try duelund's...my hunch is they are great little wire with that combo celtic66.Got great repsect for his engineering and design.  
Solid core OFC vs stranded OCC copper
"When comparing OFC to OCC in general, the OFC wire can sometimes be a bit harsher sounding and there is definitely a loss of resolution with OFC" I concur this statement...after diy’ing a few ac/speaker cables.OFC has a little more "smack/but sl...

Thats a descent awg for most applications...i sold off the last runs of 4/12 a while back...im hanging onto my last pair of 7'...and yeah sometimes un/re. The mogamis are full meal deal (8 awg)...using stand mounts and some of the lowend ive gott...

Yeah SCM...furez is a great budget choice.Too bad they are eliminating stock and the 12 no longer available.The 12/4 and mogami 3104 are my diy budget speaker cables i could live with.Mogamis needed to be run in ⏳ but made the difference.  
Any Experience with Audio Envy SP12?
I had 9's thought that they were a great little wire...talking to cap on phone when he was trial stage with these he was super excited about them...synergy with them?  
ATC SCM19 V2 Recommendations.
I opted for just over shoulder toe in that gave me best sound stage.Directly was good but i  felt that over shoulder gave me broader stage.Your stands look worthy enough.Big believer in sound anchors for atc's.If they are spiked make sure they are... 
Review ATC SCM20PSL monitors 50 hours listening
Glad you got sound anchors for them...I tried dots on mine but found that sound anchors blue just sounded more right in my system.My 19v2 give me enough bass and are setup really close to "perfect" for now 😵.Comments from brad are always spot on..... 
Buyer anxiety
Hooo man...🚓🚓☢🚩 color red <<<  
room size question.
Im in a small 10 by 13 room and it is challenging by not impossible to achcieve what your after.Leveling speaker is done with lazer placed on top of cab focused toward the listening chair.I did this with them (speakers) just over shoulder toe in.I... 
Tiny Room (6' x 9') speaker advice
Im in a 10 by 13’ dedicated room...If prices are true (vinylvalet) that would be pretty descent...i ended up with atc 19v2 which i got after having the 11’s.I could have settled for the 11’s but felt that 19’s would be gnawing at me and wanted to ...

has anyone tried chinese cables?
Agreed with thyname "ghent" is a great vender.Have several dealing with him and no booger's here.He will work with you to look for something as well if you dont see it on his site.
