I would appreciate some help. I have just purchased my first "proper" home cinema setup: a Yamaha V2600 and KEF 2005.2 speakers following a very impressive demo. It's all due to arrive on Saturday but I need to get myself some speaker cabling.
1) What speaker cabling is recommended? I am completely at a loss as to how much I should spend per metre, i.e. what quality. Could someone provide some basic guidance? Given the short timescales I am keen to purchase something locally. Is any of the cabling listed at Richersounds recommended? Or should I be looking at a more upmarket store like Sevenoaks?
2) What cabling do I need for the Subwoofer? Is it just the same as for a normal speaker?
3) Do I need Banana Plugs at both ends of my speaker cabling? i.e. for pluggin into the receiver and the speakers? Do I also need it for the Subwoofer.
If anyone can help with any, or all, of the above it would be very appreciated! I spent ages researching and demoing the kit but really overlooked this crucial element.
