I took a peak at the connectors of a brand new ZMF OFC cable the other day and they had only soldered the + wire to #1 and the - wire to #3. Nothing was bridged or connected to #2 or #4. Cable appears to sound fine. Wondering if bridging would change the sound at all. Doubt it.

Thanks! Those look good. Any options in between the two?
