Long Run Speaker Cable Suggestions

I'm considering replacing my 30 foot run of Canare StarQuad with a higher quality cable. My installation requires maintaining this 30 foot length, and the diameter of the new cable must be no larger than StarQuad (5/8") because of the in-wall run. Any suggestions?

Look into the Home Depot outdoor extension cord being discussed lately. It was reviewed favorably by Stereophile last month. Its cheap, and who knows, it could float you boat - I'm not sure of the diameter of the 14guage, but it looked like it was 1/2' or less. Not overly attractive - yellow with a black stripe. Don't laugh now.......

I second the HD cable suggestion. Exremely musical in my system, where it replaced $400 speaker cables. But it's ORANGE with a black stripe, not yellow. :-)

Try PAD's new inexpensive "Vesta" - thin, blue-colored cable - sounds good - certainly for the price - and is about $350 for 15 feet. I have a 15 foot run and am happy with it.
