Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

RE: No it is not.

The thing is, I recently discovered an interconnect cable that improved my system so much, in such a breath taking way, that I wondered what a different speaker cabe would do.
I've been using that same QED speaker cable for the last 20 years (well, I refreshed it but it's still the same cable brand and reference) by fear of trying something else - but since then , my understanding of audio has gone up a few notches, and I now understand that multistrand, 12gauge speaker cable isn't necessarily what works best with 105dB horns in multi-amp configuration. Besides, that particular QED cable has the reputation of being far from neutral.
Just because I'm disappointed with the Belden cable (maybe it only works well with tubes, counterbalancing certain characteristics?) doesn't mean I shouldn't pursue finding the right speaker cable for my system ;-) for me it's a lot of fun!
