I don't know how well known this is by now, but just in case, I'll add it.
The quality of your speakers is not affected by the cable from your amp.
The connectors are more important in terms of physical contact, but almost any new connector will do. The wire itself makes no difference. Pay as much as you want but the sound will not be any different than if you used metal coat hanger wire.
Adding to this, you probably don't know how good your speakers are or not because you're listening to your room, not your speakers. If you have given zero thought to acoustic treatment where you listen to music, you definitely don't need to upgrade your audio equipment in any way. No amount of money you spend on equipment will help you enjoy music more until you treat your room
Who the fuck is up upvoting this dumb take? So you're actually trying to argue there is no difference between a pair of $20 speakers and a $500 surround sound system with amp if they aren't in the perfect room? That's some music snobbery on a level I've never seen before.
Nothing dumb about it, it's actually quite on point. They didn't mention price points or comparing speakers, but that the actual sounds heard from any speakers in a room depends greatly on room treatment (things like reflections, absorption, standing waves). This is where good usage of dsp room correction can help, along with rugs.
There's no way you guys have friends.
