flexibility is proportional to the number of strands, the diameter of the strands but is primarily determined by the flexibility of the jacket and insulation.

Thanks in advance.

I believe you have got a Audison 5 channel amp. So why do you require a mono? If you go for a mono with the current amplifier, I think the fifth channel in the current amp would be wasted.

I am using Eclipse XA1000 Class D Mono amp with IDQ V2.D2 sub. I am happy with the result.

MX cables are Total VFM and are much better than chinese crap.

this is what i have heard.

If you are not going to big brands then MX should be your best bet

I am using the SRx5 in 3-channel mode. It is putting out 150W x 2 (front components) + 180W x 1 (sub) @ 13.8 V. I am looking to feed about 300W to the sub.
Your Eclipse XA 1000 is putting out 320W x 1. So you have good reason to be happy
You are right. After installing the new amp, the sub channel on the old one will go to waste.
