John R 5 This cable offers good performance across many parameters, especially coherence, mid bass and imaging (mid hall). I used AET rhodium bananas and they were very easy to mount. They are easy to manage and fit most decor. Would have to spend at least $1000 to improve significantly and those cables are not available on Amazon and require advanced termination.Only lack shrink sleeve at banana ends to look professional.Supplier was very gracious when answering questions.
