Good point Gary. Nothing wrong with zip cord with the right length/gauge ratio. Years ago when we were in the preamp business I got some Levinson speaker cable which turned out to be nothing more than 10 or 12 gauge (I forget) zip cord with good, solid terminations. I was using a variety of good speakers and amp combinations and they worked just fine.
