I just cancelled my order this week and will stick with double runs of the WE10ga.
Also have a star-quad run of WE16ga for the HF and WE14ga for the LF, so 13/11 awg aggregate to each speaker.  Those sound pretty darn good too.  Dug up some old literature on the WE wire earlier in the week and doubt it is anything special, just good quality tin-plated, stranded copper wire, with a thin'ish pvc coating under cotton.  I think the attraction must be attributable to the dead soft annealing, absence of too much dielectric, and maybe the stranding and pvc adding a full, dense sound, particularly in the midrange.  I find that after burning them in on my Cable Cooker and having the wire in my system for months, it does pretty much everything I need.  I liked that the bass is solid but not overblown and that I can hear real-sounding high frequencies without heat or tizz, and of course the midrange is the best part.  Even without the Duelund wire for comparison, I have compared it with high quality OCC stranded wire, high quality OCC individually insulated multi-strand solid core wire, and solid core, individually insulated, multi-strand silver wire here but still like the WE wire best for SCs.  It makes great PCs too.
I guess I have reached a point where going after the next best thing usually ends up being different, but not particularly better.  New speaker project is almost to fruition and then gotta be done.
Hi there,
I've got DCA16GA for over a month now, and I think I can reliably recommend it as a universal speaker cable with no genre preferences. I  was amazed to find that it is as good and in some respects better than my venerable Nordost Heimdall II. I use it in my main system which consists of Oppo BDP105D, NAD M51, Manley 300B Classic Preamp, modified Linear Tube Audio ZOTL10, and Audio Note AN-E SPe/HE.
The cable is very musical and involving, its tone colorful and pleasantly saturated. The usual audiophile attributes like transparency, staging, dynamics are present but not blindingly impressive. They are more or less on par with my Nordost. However, you don't buy this cable for audiophilia nervosa, quite on the contrary, its musicality makes you forget about most of these properties. But they are good enough to not feel lacking at all. I can get a tiny bit higher transparency with other cables -  Its like removing my 300B preamp from the system - I get a bit more transparency but much less musical fun. So it stays. I can live with other cables, but this brings more enjoyment. Besides, it is very cheap.
I have yet to compare the cable to my other reference, Kimber 4AG, but I’m sure that Duelund will put up a good fight. I am now thinking about ordering DCA20GA to try it as IC and compare it to my Audio Note AN-Vx, Kimber KCAG, and various silver Audioquests.
I am particularly grateful to Jeff from jeffplace.me - if it were not for his review, I would never have thought of DCA16GA (I used to despise all things tin-plated before, using silver everywhere I could). Now I am a convert)))

Agee 100%. Love the stuff. In my amp, speakers, and my speaker cables. I wish more folks knew about this stuff and were open minded enough to try them. No connectors is also key. Bare wire only! 
Has anyone compared this with any of Supra's offerings?  That's also supposedly high quality tinned stranded copper.
