Re: Advise on speaker cable

[Wayne <wayne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ok - another 2pth worth

twin and earth = solid copper cores....
does this not cause a problem in the spring loaded grippy things (tech
speak there!) or even the screw terminals on your speakers? am thinking
along the lines of there is more surface area on a squshed cable than on
a solid core which /could/ only be one edge (if you have the springy
grippy things).

oh and dont forget that t&e isnt as flexible...


Thoughts?
Wayne.
