Hi,
I just received everything, and I'm about to hook up everything.
I have read some forums in were some recommended to buy HOME DEPOTS 12gauge cable. Now I live in guatemala, and we dont have Home depot here, and I was thinking on buying it from the internet, but because of the weight it will be very expensive. So I'm seaching in the local market. But I need to know a couple of things before I buy it, maybe you can help me,
1) Is the 12 gauge cable from Home depot a standard paralel cable (like the one we use to make electical conections)
2) Is there any difference between paralel cable and speaker cable.
3) Does expensive brands like Monster or AR which have a oxigen free line, makes a difference.
4) The largest conection that I'm going to do is 30 feet ( for surrounds) do you think 12 gauge is ok, or do you think 14 guage will be enough.
The only thing that worried me is that I found paralel cable in guatemala for about $0.30 a meter or $0.10 a foot. So I'm kind of worry that it isn't the right cable.
Thanks for any informations or advise you could give me,
