The Acoustic Revive stuff is outstanding: treat all contacts incl. fuses and you’ll find it one of the best value or money tweaks anywhere.

Otherwise Chris Venhaus at vhaudio.com can probably help

The best connector is no connector, if your binding posts can handle that.

Yep, it seems the quality of the connectors is much more important than the cable between them.  If you calculate the right gauge, any cable will do. But the terminus is the thing. I run the cables all the way to the driver and solder the connection - the advantages of building your own. Soldered banana plugs the other end so they can be easily cleaned. 

Fact Check @ eric_squires, Gold is malleable / ductile by comparison. 
Copper, Silver, and Gold - Hard to Soft
As @cakids (and others) pointed out can be an effective plating element and conductivity is another matter.

I've posted this before in other threads and it looks like it's needed here;

It seems using any kind of connector degrades the signal.
