Running All Your Cables with The same Brand

Hello everyone,

I was just pondering on the thought that if when running all your cables that are produced by the same company, can it make a difference? My first purchace was a pair of Harmonic technology Pro 9 speaker cables,and i fell in love with them the moment i hooked them
up.Next was a digital cable(platinum series),and was again taken aback at how well it performed.i am soon to have a pair of interconnects Magic
2's,also by HT,and and ac cord too boot,all by the afore mentioned manufacture.

my qeury is this,if I am going this route,by having all wiring being the same brand,can this be of benefit to my gear? And do you think it can create a form of synergy overall on my equipment?

Solid core makes sense to me (can't remember why) so my rig is mostly AQ solid core and it works. Electrons flow along carrying digits, speaker current, signal, and small bits of meat, which makes no sense....but still sounds great.

Wolf, was the reason that solid core seems like a good idea because stranded wires all bunched together tend to interfere with each other? I like that reason, too, even though it may or may not be true. On a related subject, how come they always use stranded wire for power cords? That's what I'd like to know about.

I'm pretty sure they use solid core in my ESP PC's. JPS does also.

My entire house uses solid core...except my audio AC cables.

Mix and match: Cabledyne for speaker cables, Audio Art for interconnects, and Shunyata for power cords. When my mood changes I change it up with other brands of cables on hand like Nordost and Siltech.
