Awhile back I asked you if/when/how you used shielded wire as I had ordered something for work that looked to be promising for audio also. It's Belden 88760, a twisted pair of stranded, tinned, 18 gauge wires in all FEP insulation with a 300 volt RMS rating. I have now tried it in a few locations and am rather pleased with the results. Something you might wish to try. From speaker cables, to interconnects, to filament wiring, to B+ wiring it has worked well and brought audible improvments (I think)...girlfriend commented at one point so I guess it's true:). Maybe a bit bass light but rather good on the detail end and versatile with that voltage rating. Belden 89259 has also been good for me if you desire a coax. BTW I am not a cable freak but enjoy finding a good sounding multi-purpose part whatever it may be....kinda like motor run caps...good for lots of places! If you decide to try it let me know what you think. On the stiff side though so it's hard to dress.
