what gauge wire ?

[E-Stat]

Combinations of two amplifiers, two speakers and 12 cables were tested. The overall performance of the system was not significantly different than the computed sum of the performance of the individual pieces.

I'm thinking there are more than two different performing amplifiers and speakers in the universe. Variations exist. I brought this article to light to point out that one must consider the speaker-amplifier system. It certainly doesn't purport to cover all possibilities.

My final commentary is that if one is concerned about the best sonic performance in terms of both frequency and phase response, then any excess cable should be eliminated. Coiling only makes things worse. Such probably makes little difference in *pro* sound reinforcement situations since all of them are dreadful anyway.
