Most of the differences in cables of any kind have to do with component interface and personal tastes. With that in mind, you really do need to audition a few cables and see what floats your boat. Some amp / speaker combos will respond quite drastically to speaker cable swaps and some may be barely noticeable if at all. The only way that you'll find out is to see for yourself.
You can do this by either hooking up with some type of dealer that allows auditions or buying several used cables and then unloading what you don't like. If you do your shopping right, you should be able to find several variations to choose from at the price mentioned. When reselling the "left-overs", you should be able to at least break even if you did your homework at the initial time of purchase. That's the approach that i took and found the first hand experience to be WELL worth the effort. Sean
