What gauge of wire do you need to run from a home stereo 120W a distance of 30ft to an 8 Ohm speaker? |
[Edit] |
Answer
in my home theater experience, 16GA stranded copper wire is sufficent for almost all audio applications. dont let them sell you on gold plated and monster wire. it is all the same crap. there may be differences in manufacturing but the difference it produces is not even audible to the human ear. it is all about room acoustics and equilization (you remember those old analog things with all the knobs and stuff). i have taken a crappy theater install by some guy and installed all THX Klipsch speakers on the existing 18GA wire and with an equilizer and an experienced ear turned it into Tinsletown.
