The kind that works

...actually.. most people can't tell the difference in speaker wire. So just make sure you have the right guage and you'll be ok.


(Some people will even argue that it's impossible to tell the difference.. so don't be surprised if a big debate starts in this thread.... )

the only time i suggest one brand over another is when running 1/0. kicker has some flexible wiring and i highly suggest www.knukonceptz.com <<<< high quality wiring and they have "kompressed" 1/0 that is a little flatter so it can be run a little easier under the carpets.

0/1 G for speaker wire i think maybe over kill
for power wire i see what you are getting at

if the G is right than go with what you like to see [img]graemlins/blah.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/blah.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/blah.gif[/img]

Most of the time, I buy speaker wire from RONA. It's cheap and easy to work with.

oxygen free wire is better - but you still can't tell the difference, it just might last a little longer.
