Delivery mechanisms and audio quality do not matter as long as it has a good beat that I can dance to.

You get oxygen free copper because you install it permanently and don’t want it to rust and fail and have to rip out your ceiling and walls

So get the good stuff it’s not sound quality it’s so it lasts

Is this a joke? Like actually? If your speaker wire is "rusting and failing" I got bad news for your 120v/240v service and plumbing.

This is just dumb.

Also who the fuck would rip out celling and walls for low voltage speaker wire run. Being a bit dramatic there bud. Just use the old shit to pull the new wire through. Cut small holes where you can't.

The speaker is what they hear, not the signal to it. Regardless how it's transmitted.

Without a good DAC, even the cleanest input gets muddy
