Or Mr. Stanton is quoting know-nothing, schyster,

Of course it doesn't make any sense technically, but it
would sure sound good to a customer with deep pockets
and shallow knowledge of electronics. (i.e. you typcial
"Monster" et.al. cable customer)


If you go back and reread my message, you will notice I did *not*
recommend buying an expensive 8 Ohm (characteristic impedance),
speaker cable. I mearly mentioned that such cable was available. This
type of cable has only one pratical advantage over regular speaker
cable, it will cause less of a bump when run under a rug.

I recommended Home Depot's 12 gage speaker cable, which has a
characteristic impedance of around 100 Ohms. This is an inexpensive
but very adequite, speaker cable.
