However, one person in the test was able to (>87% "hits") hear the difference between mc and 16g. So if you consider your self to be average - use 16g. This test indicates to me that some people can hear better than others and MAY benefit from monstor cable. Use YOUR ears - not someone elses, tests like these are guidelines. Craig "averages don't apply to individuals" Durland hp-pcd!hp-cvd!craig ps I use 14g cable.
