6awg from me vs common 12awg.
This is part of the cable set I'm going to make available. It requires a special treatment to make it viable for assembly. I've come to appreciate the wisdom of using tinned copper for its virtues on sound. It's not "exotic" per-se but it most certainly is in another sense when it's made like this, to this quality. Not all cables are the same just because they read to be similar by name or spec. Even the measurements don't always give us true clues. For example I can measure some DDK recommended interconnects that have darn near the same measurement as another cable (we're talking 98%) and they don't sound the same to me as the other one or even close (I cant even hand trim them to be closer in measurement but still not the same).
For me I prefer the sound here, for a natural sound that isn't inhibited or drawing attention to itself. What I've been making has been preferable to the legendary RS interconnects, as I think they are more open, sort of like missing a glaze - "add nothing, take nothing" is certainly the approach.
