Choosing the right/affordable audio cable.

[E-Stat]

If so, what would be the best choice? Or should i just go with the bare wire instead?

What Feanor said.

I've found that cables can most certainly make a difference, but in proportion to the system. I use some Blue Jeans cable in the garage system. Nicely terminated Belden stuff.

I had an A/V dealer let me bring home 4 different base level designs over a weekend to determine what I liked in my system. Once I chose my favorite, he then let me listen to a couple different models. I ended up with something I never thought I'd pay for but the sound was undeniable. Until you are comfortable with trying different cables, the Blue Jeans route is very value friendly.
