Yep, going from heavy duty bell wire to 2.5 mm^2 1,000 and something
strand OFC copper loudspeaker cable(*) is the only time I've heard a
change simply by changing a cable. Simply due to better damping of
the speakers by the amp. Amps at/in speakers is the way to go. With a
limited budget spend the money on the speakers, that's the really
hard and thus expensive, bit to do well.

(*) More expensive than T&E but only a quid or two per metre not the
£1,000/m stuf...
