Agreed, gauge is the only thing that counts. The comment about break in was really just a throw away. Never expected it to raise a shtstorm. I should have known better.
The youtube vid mentioned gauge for the cable as it comes out of the amp. Don’t remember exactly but it was 12 gauge or under.
Yes, I have a lot of BJC. The only thing I have against them is that some can be really stiff.
I was going to wire my own, but why since these WBC cables are better than anything I could screw up.
In the digital sphere, e.g. USB cables, etc., I am definitely an objectivist.
In the analog realm, in which I place speaker cables, then not so much.
