I was reading somewhere that, most of it is only a marketing gimmick, as long as proper thickness of wire is used, the brands hardly make any difference. |
You r right but some not so good brands and almost all cheap [like chinese amp kits] dont follow thickness standard,say if a kits is supposed to be 4g but it wont have that mnay strnads of wires inside as compared to any high quality wire.
And its not just thickness of wire as whole which matters but the thickness and quality of insulation material used is also very important.
Chinese kits which have flooded the market appear to be thick but if u look carefully,these have less no.of strands of wires inside but the thickness of insualtion material is unnecassarily more,obviously of cheap quality.
So if u r looking for good quality wire do look for no.of wire strands,quality and thickness of insualtion material used.
Ihave been using auudison wires in my system and very much satisfied with this brands.Monster,JL audio,JBL,Kicker,phonexic gold r other good brands.
