I like the ideal of getting well constructed cables that perform well but the connectors could had been better. Even if you had to pay a few dollars more. I had to change them out due to poor contact with the connecting screw internally. Two just pulled off in my hand. Once I replace these oversized banana plugs with better connectors, I am more that satisfied with the cables. The sound is a touch warm with plenty of high frequency detail and extension. Not bright at all. Very satisfied with the sound.
