Oops - sorry I meant best, not pest... that's pretty solid.I have more than some, less than others.I have also given in excess of 500 tubes away and sold a large group of 1963 Melz at cost to help others.

Do we KNOW each other and were you in MY listening sessions with friends when we originally got/built these cables of mine? Because you are literally describing what I built (Using Stratus Computer chassis ground cable… lots of strands, flexible, white sheath… 2guage… right down to the pure copper Edison Price binding post replacement on my Apogees…My pals and I tried 0 and 2 gauge welding wire and it was atrocious. Confused sound stage - epically so.
The best wire in ABX (not level matched) we all agreed was an aluminum 2 ga mini computer cable ground wire that had at least 250 strands and was super flexible in a simple white plastic sheath - with pure copper lugs of the type in your pic - this was against stuff like Kimber 8TC, Cardas (various 'Golden section' versions, AQ, MIT, and others). Since depending on env, placement (yes on vs over concrete floors - try it), amp(s), and speakers, results tend to fluctuate with speaker cables I went the way of room tuning/improvment which is predictable and repeatable. I use 'Blue Jeans' cable now and never vex over it. I also found similar issues with SE interconnects - varying and unrepeatable results. XLR cables seem far less susceptable to this sort of thing - so its been balanced for more than this millennium - except when its not possible.
Yep… My IRL name is Dave Wagner… me clearly must have crossed paths… you?THAT's THEM! Those are the aluminum cables - must have been from Mal's high tech buddies !!
Know that exact place, can’t remember the name. Last I knew I think Watch City Brewing is in that location now (I stopped working in Waltham in 2007; moving to Texas in 2018). Last at Il Cappricio would have been in 2007. Took a Gartner Analyst to dinner after we did an in depth briefing. Remember that we had a Helen Turley Reserve Zinfandel and a Poggio Antico Brunello. (There were two others with us).
Looks like a UK version of the Auratone line.

True, those pieces of cardboard are not cognoscenti approved - should be at least teak if not some ZMF tropical wood - hand rubbed with Tung oil - then dried with raw linen !It looks like you have achieved moderation, because anything more would have been excessive.
