Cut it in half for 2 15 foot lengths. connected it up to the hifi using my usual gold plated hand turned 4mm plugs (and here you know why it sounds so good). Well i was gobsmacked! it sounds better than the 2 x 1.5m lengths of fancy chord co speaker wire i used when the amps were behind the speakers. Actually i can't really hear a difference but I have been trying a lot of different things out as part of a room rearrangement................ but so what? The point I am making really is that if you use wire of a sufficient cross sectional area, made from ordinary reasonably pure copper, then you'll get a good result.

Well that proves it.
The cable was "broken in" using a lawn mower as a load
