The wire isn't very critical something like 22 gauge and the insulation should be good for 200v or better. What I do sometimes is use the wire from an old computer power supply but I'm CHEAP. A friend repairs computers and he saves the power supplies for me. Along with the wire there are lots of little goodies on the circuit board. Diodes,bridge rectifier, and caps to name a few. It's not a bad thing if you can replace the bad wire with one that's the same color. Won't make it play any better but may make it easier to fix.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
