Well, I'm new to this arena and need a little guidance. I just purchased a pair of RTi A5's and I'm getting ready to order the Pioneer Elite VSX-33. I don't have a whole lot of money left to spend, but would like to get some decent speaker wire for my system. What would you recommend as good speaker wire to start out with for my set-up?

Thanks for the help!

    Well, I would say $50 to max $100. I really would prefer to stay around the $50, but if going up to $100 will make that big of a difference, I am open to suggestions. Thanks!

    In that price range, it won't make a difference. Get whatever strikes your fancy.

    I'm assuming your going to finish out the speaker package and go full surround? If that's the case or not I suggest Audioquest FLX14/2 speaker wire. It's very affordable and is the best sounding 14g wire I have ever used. You can pick it up here for a great price.

    Thank you for the feedback!

    Yes I plan to finish out the system with a sub, center and surround. I will go check out the wire that was recommended. I appreciate the help here as I am new to all of this.

    Thanks!
