Period wire would be either lamp cord or the similar, original Monster Cable. Fulton cable (think garden hose) was also an early adopter. For more current stuff you can try the Cable Asylum, where there are more believers, however, I would avoid cable that has extreme capacitance or inductance. Your receive might not be able to drive it properly. It could even blow. I would also recommend you stick with lower priced stuff.
There is also the flat parallel stuff, if you want to run under carpet. I have had interest in this type, as of late because the inductance and capacitance cancel each other out. This type of cable measures like a Zobel.
