Today I made my decision and purchased Tara Prism Klara bi-wire speaker cable at $4.00/ft. I comprimised. Not expensive but yet not the lower end either. Sort of right in the middle. My runs are long in the 20' to 30's area so I spent several hundred dollars. Just finished connecting them in and removing my Monster XP non bi-wired arrangement. Well sitting here tonight listing to Four Play, Horace Silver, and Al Jarreau, my ears don't lie. The slam, the soundstage, the bass guitar licks, all just sound so much more alive and right in my face. There's no disputing it. Sound is fabulouts. Why limit your speakers with low end of speaker wire but no need to spend great amounts either. For me, I was willing to go as high as $6.00/ft but I ended up at $4.00/ft. Each upgrade means greater sound. So you don't have to go to the $10.00 to $15.00/ft speaker wire. But I would bi-wire. If your speakers are bi-wireable, why not utilize that feature? I'm highly impressed iwth these Tara Lab cables. Great on-line reviews too.
