H, Kim,
I've got some of that Cyrus solid-core in a box with a heap of valves & stuff. If my memory serves me correctly though, it's a very short pair - 1.5, maybe 2 metres per channel. Come to think of it, I also have a pair that's longer than I need that's hooking my Tannoys to my Yamaha receiver in my 2nd (or is it 3rd.........or 4th sytem- don't know how long they are either!!) - I could probably swap those for the short ones if you needed more . Let me know if you're interested & I'll have a measure up & let you know how much there is.
Obviously there would need to be a small consideration involved!
Cheers

Do you mean by 'solid core', a pair of single conductors? If so, then DNM make some solid core quadrifilar (4 separate conductors) ribbon speaker cable, intended for bi-wiring.
Or, you could try 20A twin and earth mains cable (ignore the earth conductor). Cheap as chips, although stiff, but then I doubt that the Mission Solid Core cable is particularly flexible. Michael Hughes raved about the use of mains wiring cable as speaker cable many years ago.
