Did the silver lace kit. It was a bit difficult to pick out the +/- strands. You need a Radio Shack multimeter to match them up. Otherwise basic soldering skills and a little finesse are all that are needed. For your other question, do a search of these archives under homegrown and you'll find plenty of discussion.

I'm sampling to the HGA Super Silver interconnects at the moment and really love them. Question, has anyone compared the Super Silver and Lace? Compare / contrast the two. Sometimes the top-of-the-line cables won't synergize as the lesser expensive models and I was just curious not of this point (as you would be not have insight) but IF the Lace is just clearly superior. Thanks. Whats ya think of the kits?
