If you DIY, I suggest keeping the terminations pure copper with with the plating that you find the most appealing to your ears. With that said... | |
| Oyaide or Furutech plugs I like Furutech because pure copper is used as opposed to berillium copper used by Oyaide. VH Audio has a lot of info about plugs and other components used by audio people. | |
