Sure, not to get off topic, but thermostat cable sold by the foot at Home Depot is thin gauge solid core cable as compared to most generic speaker cable, which is stranded. A longtime audiophile whose opinion I trust recommended that I could spend $20 to test if there is any brightening of the sound using solid core cables. So, I tried and there was a slight audible difference to my ears. Having proved that, I then purchased Neotech UP-OCC 22ga cable and braided it using 3 strands; two to the positive and one to return. This is more than ample for the HF terminals on my speakers which incidentally are a crossoverless design. Whether I am compensating for hearing loss due to my age or simply catering to my own taste stands to be seen. I use heavier gauge stranded Cardas cables for the LF drivers.
