i have to agree with tom, in an audiophile HI-FI world as opposed to say a live band PA there is an argument, in theory, for using monster cable, but as tom points out, everything has to be "just so" when it comes to pre-amps,amps and speakers... i would defy anyone doing a blind a/b/c test to pick the difference...i actually use power cable (swg1.5) for my live pa rig from amps to speakers and they do just fine.
