[QUOTE=stevos2005]Personally I feel that the difference between a well designed $100 cable and cheap lamp cord will be much greater than the difference from the $100 cable to an "audiohphile" $1000 cable, but those are my 2 cents.

Since the cable is supposed to deliver the amplified signal from the amp to the speakers, it should be designed to produce as flat a response as possible and have a low characteristic impedance. Some speaker cables may attenuate certain frequencies and that should be avoided. QUOTE]

But 12 AWG Lamp cord produces a flat response and only attenuates the signal 0.4 dB(undetectable) at 20 kHz. You can't improve upon perfection.
