Magnepan 3.7 Jumper Direction?

A silly question but here goes... I am using AQ Type 4 speaker cables. These are directional. I want to experiment with making jumpers from the same cable. Does anyone know which direction the jumpers from such a cable should be pointed when installed as jumpers? In other words, with the cable marking arrows pointing left to right, or right to left.

Thanks all so far. My attempt was a DIY disaster. Just not a handy kind of guy. However, FWIW, the jumpers I made of some Anticables worked out and are quite an improvement over the stock ones. Tried some plain 10 or 12 ga. solid copper house wire. Rolled off the top some. Meh.

Thanks for the input all. I think I'll hang with the Anticable solution, especially since it was nearly free. $200 and + options make little sense... to me. I suspect that like all things with cables, the sound is very much up to personal taste.

With that said, I have tried only a few brands of speaker cable. Looking for value, the AQs and Anticables do it for me so far.

I do not read what Elizabeth's comment regrading Maggies not having harsh highs is in response to. A poster did reference grain. So what did I miss? Like most, I haven't experienced harsh highs in either my 1.7s or 3.7s.
