Cable for DC power?

Cable Asylum

Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Any thoughts on a good bulk cable for the purpose of a two-wire DC power conductor to connect a linear power supply to an audio component. If not a specific cable, any thoughts about geometry, i.e., twisted pair or coaxial, or wire gauge, or shielding? Does shielding help in this situation? Anyone know what some of the better LPS manufacturers use? Currently, I am using a DC cable I made from a 18 awg coaxial cable I harvested from a Dell computer power supply. The load is 5V and 1A. Thanks for any information.
