    Badgers rec. is sufficient for your needs, both performance/price for a restaurant.

    to be fair the speaker cable i got that is oxygen free is quite a large conductor id say it was the equivelent to 1 mm flex core size, and to be fair my sound system came with that cheapy crappy stuff from factory it ran alright but the oxygen free cable definitely made a difference

    Not being funny or owt..but will the customers be able to differentiate between O2 free cable and ordinary 1.5mm two core flex?..I suspect not. Busy restaurant, noise and stuff..who the hecks going to hear frequency cutoffs (if in fact it does happen) due to the use of ordinary two core flex. And to boot it wont be classical music being played it will be general stuff. Not so sure that these O2 free cables warrant the cost TBQH..would be more interested in meaty CSA's.

    Don't forget if the Bi Wire is operational (if in fact the speakers/amp has this) then maybe more cores per speaker?.
