Question Fisual Super Pearl Or Van Damme Concert Black?

Hi All,

Ive been reading quite a few threads about speaker on here these last few days and had come to the conclusion Fisual Super Pearl 2.5mm would be a good option for my 5.1 setup..

Having read more ive seen a lot of people talking about Van Damme cable. There might not be anything in it but I wondered if the Van Damme Concert Black 2.5mm would be any better?

One slight issue is that the cable is being run under the carpet, id read on here that the Fisual cable is 7mm thick, I can accommodate that with 3 layers of underlay Does anyone know how thick the Van Damme cable is? It looks from the pictures that it may be thicker as both wires are in the same outer jacket?

Of course if theres no benefit to using it over the Fisual then it doesnt matter :D

Sorry for the long post!

P.S. It will be 10m run from my Onkyo 875 to B&W 602.5's and a HTM62
