The manual for my 6505 says to use ... well it says exactly "IMPORTANT: Use only high quality, UNshielded speaker cables" but all I can find and have are shielded, or at least say they are. Someone told me that should be fine, but to use 14 gauge, most of these, including the ones I have are 24 guage.

I went to musicians friend and zzsounds and searched around for speaker cables and they all seem to BRAG about how shielded they are, I'm a total n00b to this... are they talking about a different type of shielding? could any of this hurt my amp?

this is what i'm using right now

fine? if not what do I need to buy and where can I find a 14 guage, unshielded speaker cable with 1/4 inputs?
