ok, i don't get it.. I get the bit about use cheap cables, you all say
the same, what I don't get is how companies can get away with selling
£40.00+++ pm cable, when you all reckon go cheap.
If I go cheap is it better to bi-wire? most of the on-line reviews I
have read say bi-wiring is the best way to go, I am now very
confuzzed.

It's all bull**** designed to sell a few ounces of copper at outragous
prices. The magazines play up to it because they get lots of advertising
revenue from the chancers that want to flog the cable. No point in
advertising in a mag that says your cable is no better than decent mains
flex - since the readers have all been told not to bother, they're hardly
going to flock to your snake oil stall, are they? So the mags maintain their
bread and butter by spouting the appropriate bull**** in their reviews.

When newbie punter comes along and wants to get a decent hi-fi, he gets a
few mags or goes online for some reviews, does some reading, and is left
thinking that he has to get a certain standard (at a certain price) of
speaker cable.
