this is very very true ! i bought and use 16 gage heavy pvc coated wire from my stero receiver to my new klipsch f-2 towers and man are they clear and crisp . i spoke to te designer and he gave me the low down as to . internal spec.what wire they use in production . min and max as to gage wire to use with them .
( helps he is a family member )
but on a inexspencive stereo system .you could get away with thinner and cheaper wire .you wouldn't tell the diffrent .you go with a system that is above the all in the box stereo set .(were the reciever,speakers , wires are all ready for you to attach them and plug it in the wall outlet ) you may want to make a call to the manufacture of your speakers .if they only use 18-16 gage wire to the jacks your attaching your wires to . why would you attach 12 gage speaker wires from the reciever to the speaker .i think that be just a waste of better wire .
also placement of sound equipment can affect the systems performance . why over kill a area -or worst under kill a area - lets say you got a 14x20 room .and you have a pocket radio in the far corner turned midway up .chances are you may hear it but it be like a muffled voice in your head . now take that same unit and crank the sound up 3/4 way up . it sound like crap till you walked closer to the unit . |
