un-screwing acoustic zen cables


My Acoustic Zen interconnects have become impossible to remove from my components! The scew-up end-of-cable plugs just will not un-screw. Every single connection has the same problem. I'm now not sure which way to twist to undo them. I've tried pliars and WD40. Nothing will release them. Any similar experiences? Any ideas on how to take off the cables?

I've had so much trouble, the sockets on the pre-amp and CDP are becoming loosened from the cabinet - and one has been damaged :(

Thanks for any help!

Thanks for all of the helpful suggestions. I managed to get the cables off at the pre-amp end, and the CDP is now free from the system. I will now take the player (with interconnects still attached) to the Musical Fidelity dealer for repair (and cable removal!).
