Default What gauge speaker wire should I use?

I'm not sure if I should be using 16 gauge, 12 gauge, or whatever
gauge of copper wire to connect my power amp (Hafler P1500) to my speakers
(Tannoy PBM 6.5 II). I suspect that there may be a formula for the best choice
based on length of the cables. Can anyone help?

Also, is there a better choice than the "pure" copper wire sold by
Radio Smack? Thanks!
