I use 1/2inch for Audioquest 12/4 FLX series. Gives a nice clean snug fit."Some people find it easier to be conceited rather than correct."

Flexo PET claims theirs expands up to 150%. It's good to have it stretch a little installed so it's a snug fit.
Here is a chart I found at a car forum that can be used as a guide.
Salk SoundScape 8's * Audio Research Reference 3 * Bottlehead Eros Phono * Park's Audio Budgie SUT * Krell KSA-250 * Harmonic Technology Pro 9+ * Signature Series Sonore Music Server w/Deux PS * Roon * Gustard R26 DAC / Singxer SU-6 DDC * Heavy Plinth Lenco L75 Idler Drive * AA MG-1 Linear Air Bearing Arm * AT33PTG/II & Denon 103R * Richard Gray 600S * NHT B-12d subs * GIK Acoustic Treatments * Sennheiser HD650 * -

Two separate cables in a single TechFlex jacket? That's not going to look good.Political Correctness'.........defined

Tech flex is just one more dialectric on the cables.
Is the chance that it will affect SQ worth the aesthetic improvement of the cables?
Or do you have another reason for wanting to put the -- I assume -- double-run, bi-wire cables in tech flex?Family Room, Innuos Statement streamer (Roon Core) with Morrow Audio USB cable to McIntosh MC 2700 pre with DC2 Digital Audio Module; AQ Sky XLRs to CAT 600.2 dualmono amp, Morrow Elite Speaker Cables to NOLA Baby Grand Reference Gold 3 speakers. Power source for all components: Silver Circle Audio Pure Power One with dedicated 20 amp circuit to main panel.
Exercise Room, Innuos Streamer via Cat 6 cable connection to PS Audio PerfectWave MkII DAC w/Bridge II, AQ King Cobra RCAs to Perreaux PMF3150 amp (fully restored and upgraded by Jeffrey Jackson, Precision Audio Labs), Supra Rondo 4x2.5 Speaker Cables to SDA 1Cs (Vr3 Mods Xovers and other mods.), Dreadnaught with Supra Rondo 4x2.5 interconnect cables by Vr3 Mods. Power for each component from dedicated 20 amp circuit to main panel, except Innuos Statement powered from Silver Circle Audio Pure Power One. -
These are diy cables to use the high level inputs on the sub I just scored. They are simply 12 Awg low voltage cable I had sitting around, doubled up and twisted the ends for each channel. Screw set nanners I also had forever, so I my thought was 3/8 tech flex.
