I'm no expert on speaker wire, but last week I replaced my 12 guage Monster stranded wire, with 12 guage solid copper wire I purchased at Home Depot. The wire was 10 cents a foot, so I spent $3 to experiment. I don't know any specs on the solid wire, but I guess it had a PVC jacket. The sound was definitely different. After a few hours of listening, I determined that the bass was much more prominent, but it was so loose and undefined that I decided to take it out. The wife said it sounded "muddled" compared to the old wire. Maybe I would have had better luck with 14 guage in the twisted configuration.Newbie Question: in the twisted pair configuration, is the "twisted pair" split out at termination so that one becomes the "+" and one the "-", or is the twisted pair terminated as one "+" lead and one twisted pair terminated as the "-" lead?
