How do I determine what gauge speaker cable I should use with my receiver?

Asked by mark (225points) December 21st, 2007

I have a Yamaha HTR-5740 receiver (old, and hence no manual), and I need to replace some speaker cables. I want to order these online, but I know nothing about the appropriate gauge. Is there a standard gauge for home theaters? Where would I start in determining what will work for mine?
