    He said they only come in black ? I already ordered from him and thats what he told me. EDIT: Ohh so it seems they are actually grey not black and it was just the lighting that made them look that way. I got it.

    Makes sense. I guess I was just looking for someone to say how great these are and how they are worth it given most products use way cheaper connectors. I talked to Justin at ampsandsound and even for his $15k plus head amp he's using like $3 rean connectors.

    That is exactly what im getting. And yes 0.6 on same panel and touching panels. And 0.6 when leads touching each other. Either 0.6 or sometimes 0.4 for all the values.

    Followed this vid. I tested all the panels that are in contact and got 0.6 which is what I get when the terminals are touching eachother as well. Is that acceptable?

    I just tried some RCAs in 6sn7g7b tall boy position and it was warmer thicker sound but lost a lot of detail vs the sylvania chrome tops. The RCA plate construction seems to resemble the tungsol. Sylvania is definitely my preference. I tried 2 different types of sylvanias and there is an...
