Hi, I'm new to AC and wanted to let you know that I asked Roger advise about enameled copper wire for speaker cable use and subsequently ordered and received 16 gauge enameled copper wire, which I slight twisted and used as a short pair of speaker wires, replacing some very thin gauge wires. The enameled copper wires sound more integrated and liquid, without any high, mid, or low frequency emphasis. A very worthwhile change for those interested in DIY for not much money ($.50/foot + S&H)! Roger also has other gauges available for experimentation. Thanks Roger!!
