Looking for speaker wire.
I have Denon 4800 receiver and Paradigm Monitor 7 speakers. What would be the speaker wires that match with my system? My budget is around $300-400.
Thanks for the inputs

I've been very happy with my MIT cables (Terminator 4). I bought them from Audio Advisor b/c they're about half the price of buying locally.
They also have a wide selection of higher end cables from Cardas, Nordost, Audioquest, and others.

I have a Denon 2802 and Paradigm Performance series speakers now, but used to have a Montors 7's also. I have used many different wires/cables(Nordost, Kimber, Straight Wire, Monster, etc...)
Get some 12AWG Sound King or Carol speaker wire from www.partsexpress.com or from your local home store.
It is about $.25-.50 per foot
I use Recoton 12AWG wire that I got for $2.50 for a 40 foot roll and it works/sounds just as good as my $5/foot Nordost Flatline.
For speaker wire make sure it is Oxygen free and at least 14AWG and for cables make sure it is TRUE 75ohm cable with good shielding.
