Gentlemen, I do thank you all for your helpful, and informative replies.
I have noted that Dedicated Audio shows the Cardas Leads, one, at about $116, with the Rhodium Plated "coil spring" style connectors, and the next one down the list, for about $72, are I believe the same wire, but with the more conventional Clips, with also, the Rhodium Plating. I gather these are the best of the bunch, perhaps due to better contact, and without the worry of clearance problems at the Tonearm Pins themselves.
And as you have noted Neil, perhaps the most expensive ones on the list are shorter for some reason? Hmmm?
I'll try checking with both Sumiko, and with Michael Percy for the Van Den Hul Leads. Does anybody have a vague idea of price for the VDH Leads? Thanks, Mark
