Reasonable RCA Connectors?
What? Truly confused by your statement. Love fest for Duelund? Switchcraft? KLEI? Connectors? I make and sell many cables weekly using all of the connectors mentioned here. All have a sonic impact and need varying lengths of burn in. Yes, I am rat... 
Reasonable RCA Connectors?
Did you give the KLEI 150 hours?  Most important to really hear it.  Let us know how many hours the KLEI had on them. Thanks.  
Duelund RCA interconnects...opinions
Yes I have tried that. Others are also now saying to mix some silver wire in with the Duelund tinned stranded copper. I have tried both and to my ears nothing sounds better than a twisted pair of 16 gauge. The other options start to sound not quit... 
Duelund RCA interconnects...opinions
Yes indeed I Sell lots of them here. I like the 16 gauge wire with KLEI connectors the most for sound quality.

Just wanted to share I have made some for my customers and they love them. Folks are contacting me about these so there is still interest.  Folks reading here don’t neccessarily post.

These are not that easy to build, however the OP of that thread will make you properly wired 8 port Poe units. It involves cutting unwanted traces and soldering short wire jumpers to the board. I ordered mine from the OP as I am too busy to mess w... 
Duelund DCA 12ga Hookup Wire
Yes,  twist the wires on pins 2 and 3.  Just use some nice 1/4 inch copper braid from sellers like Amazon or Parts Connextion etc....Make sure the braid is pulled up as close as possible to your xlr plug solder connections.

Well the starquad DC does not come close to the more difficult to build Poe DC cable.  However they are much better than stock.

The tin plating is part of the sound and Duelund did not use it to ward off corrosion which is no longer an issue with today’s better wire coating.....including oil impregnated cotton. So it is there for the tone. It is a fine stranded copper wire...

In this wire it is your friend ✌️ 
Duelund DCA16GA
The tin coating helps give it the wonderful sound.  It is part of the design and a big positive. No, it does not melt off and cannot be removed. I know the notion of tin costing and suburb Sonics can seem at odds. But it could not be further from ...
