Post What speaker cable?

Just upgrading from a seperates stereo system where I used Cable talk 3.1. Is cable talk 3.1 good enough or do I need to go for something better? Can't be too expensive as rears about 8 metres away. What speaker cable do you guys recommend for connecting Denon 3300 with B&W S2 603s, 601s, and LCR6.
cheers!

Try QED Silver at £5/m, it may sound expensive but it is well worth it.

I have never heard of QED, but then again I'm from the States. But I do agree that you should use a silver or a silver-hybrid cable for the three front speakers. I use Dh Labs T14 "silver streak" cables and I'm completely satisfied. B&W speakers are kind of laid back sounding to me and I think silver cables,interconnects really liven them up.

I have QED silver, sounds good to me. Retro do you go to any of the Liverpool games? I'll be at the Parma game on Sunday.

I've only ever been to 2 games.
Vs Chelsea approx 3 years ago
and Vs Wimbledon last year. Both away games
I live near London which causes a minor problem.

PS If you want 2 save money on the QED cable, buy the bi-wire at £8.5/m and split it, save u that extra £1.5!
