Pulling what would likely be less than a 1 ft run of wires out of a jacket is about as easy as it gets in the world of DIY efforts. My post clearly states that the intent is to opt for a better-than-typical hookup wire rather than attempt to use unpredictable sounding solid core wire for a power amplifiers *speaker level* hookup wire. That said, my favorite hookup wire for a *signal level* application is 22 AWG solid core OCC single crystal copper/Teflon wire. Now, if I were to use OCC solid core wire for a power amplifier output to binding post *speaker level* hookup wire, I would also use no larger than 22 AWG solid core copper conductors due to the skin effect of solid core copper wire, and I would implement no less than 14 AWG aggregate gauge for the particular *speaker level* application, which would then require a twisted bundle of 6 x 22 AWG solid core wires per pole, which would indeed "seem like a lot of trouble" for a very short length of *speaker level* hookup wire, when a better-than-typical 14 AWG stranded conductor would serve the purpose, quite well, IMO.
