I used the LoRad to replace Volex 17604 (some self terminated) that I had been using for many years. First on my Oppo (did a listening test) then on my 200 W/Ch amp (13 AWG is plenty sufficient - the LoRad easily beat the 7 AWG Pangea) and also did a listening test. Removed just enough grunge. Improved the bass. Then changed it on my preamp w/o test.
Am using Valab Taiwanese connectors, excellent and cheap. Rhodium plated copper. Very tight connections to wires and a super grip on the IEC. Beyond that I fail to see what very expensive terminations offer.
