Default Silver Biwire Speaker Cables

Hi, it's me again!

I'm thinking about making a pair of biwire with silver (or silver/copper
hybrid) on top and a thick copper strand at the bottom.

Any suggestion on material and gauge size?

Thanks!

Yes indeed - use 12AWG copper.

There is a "silver" lining here (no pun intended), Stewart - after all these
years
audiophiles are no longer touting gold wire because they finally figured out
that
gold is *less* conductive than copper. Inch by inch ...
