Canare StarQuad or Monster XP speaker cable?


I want to get some speaker cable for my rears and outside speakers in my new house. I will get the contractor to wire the house with speaker cable. The runs are approx. 30ft each. I will be using Paradigm's outdoor speakers and mini monitors for my rears. I have been looking at either Canare StarQuad or Monster's XP or regular THX cables. All the prices are about the same. Any suggestions or thoughts?

Also, with the StarQuad, do I connect two wires to the positive and two wires to the negative of both the amp and the speaker? and what size cables do you recommend?
thanks.

Fish, IMO forget the Monster XP's, especially since your having them installed in your walls. Not familiar w/the Canare's. Money spent now will well be worth the agony and regret later.
