Gauge matters in some setups, especially over longer lengths, this is overly generalizing.
Not really. Most home hifi won't be affected. I think that's a reasonable generalisation.
By your reasoning I could use some 24 gauge wire that came with a pair of Walmart computer speakers with a receiver paired with 3-ways each with 10" woofers. Or even better yet, between a plate amp and sub as a fire starter.
I don't disagree with your overall premise, but it's too reductive, even for home theater. Throw in a "16ga in most non-sub applications" and only then does it become true.
You're being way too pedantic. I said most home hifi and you're example isn't.
If you want me to be more specific, this article will cover pretty much anything you want know.
