Which Teo Audio cables include the tuned ABH apertures in the RCA connectors?  
Oyaide Cables
@t_ramey take five audio has a tutorial on mating connectors to Oyaide raw wire, where they teach connecting the screen and ground together on only the wall plug connector (and cutting off the shield wire from the IEC plug). I think this is consis...

Conditioning/Burn-In Method

Dunlavy SC-IVa speaker cabinet refinishing source?
I owned a pair of SC-IV's earlier and had no problem with the veneer, but this pair was made from cabinets by DAL's original outside cabinet supplier. I obtained my second pair of SC-IV's (the ones I now own, SC-IVa's) after DAL moved their cabine...
