Chord Epic here.
I had an offcut spare so experimented removing the speaker terminal jumpers and replacing them with Epic inner core.
It genuinely made a significant positive difference.

We were at a boot sale this morning and by coincidence our neighbouring seller had some Chord bi-wire speaker cable and a lot of QED speaker cable for sale. I didn't ask the price as I wasn't interested, but sometime later a guy bought the lot.
I had to get my cables reterminated and in the interim bought a 5m pair of 10AWG Belden Blue Jeans 5T00UP.
The spec is here

They arrive in a few days.
I found them perfectly good and the connectors are ultrasonically welded. Cost £140 plus postage. £100 for a 2.5m pair.
Happy to pass them on if anyone interested.
Thanks guys
Some decent ideas there.
I'm currently using some Duelund from my crossovers which is really great. So I might go with that again.
Van Den Hul do make some great cable and so I may go with the same or similar cabling which is inside the cabinets.
But, I'm for a more experimental choice too. I've heard the blue jeans stuff is good.

What did you end up with Josie?
Nanotec 207. Or the later version, uses colloid suspension internally.
I still have some Monster cable from 1980s!. AND some classic DNM thin cable, as contrast!
Loved the thin gague DNM cable back in the day, remember it beating out Nordost Blue Heaven I had at the time.
Roger Waters Amused to Death sounded just as clear, but more meat on the bones.
That wee experience shown me that cable gague and its visual aspect had no real direct impact on the sound.
The DNM sounded meaty, and had stuff you could tow yer car with that was bass light or bleached out.
Nanotec has a good reputation, not heard it m'self.
Van Damme white line. Sounds good to me.
