Speaker Leads Dave C. 05-19-2007
I've a Sony DAV-FX500 and it is working very well. The speaker leads to
the three front speakers each are at least 25 feet long but looks like they
are a #22 wire size. (The one to the sub-woofer is size 16.)

I cannot figure why they use #22 wire for the front speakers except #22 is
cheaper than #16 (go figure)!

The three front speakers are each less than 6 feet from the reciever.

Before I replace them with #16 or #18 wire cut to length, an unlikely remote
thought comes to my mind that the #22 wire at about 25 feet provides some
needed resistance in the speaker circuit, maybe damping value. Does this
thought make any sense?

Doesn't it make the most sense to use a larger size wire for speaker hookup?
Speaker inpedence is 4 ohms.

Thanks, Dave C.
