Whacha guys thinks about these? Any better than my plain 12 gauge OFC wire braided speaker cable?
I got a pair thrown in for free with an amp.

    I preferred MITs but as anything in audio goes it's up to you to make that decision. I backed to back mine with 12 guage braided and went with the MIT sound.

    mit is the only cable you need.
    I thought it was fairly amusing also. The Polk Ogre doesn't always get 'it'

    Billbill,

    I used the Terminator 6 before making a large jump to other cable in the Shed, you can expect deeper bass, anyway, that was my result. I was pretty satisfied with my Terminator 6, still have them on a bedroom rig, enjoy them.

    Cool. Can't complain when they are FREE! Just need to get some new ends for them. They currently have pins, but a few are broken short (and I hate pins anyway!)
    I'll probably throw some inexpensive nanners on them.

    They should have ICONN connectors, giving you the ability to screw on spades, bananas, or pins.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    I wish, but not on these ones. They are older style, all white cable and boxes. The pins are soldered on firmly.

    if that "short" end is threaded, that is the pin Russ is referring too and yes you can buy the spades or nanners to fit them, not cheap, but well made, I got some from usedcable.com, if you dont have an MIT dealer close, the factory wanted to much to ship them. Come to think of it, I bought the terminators I have off Russman, a steller sale.

    The Terminator4 is a great speaker cable. Do a side-by-side compairision and you will never consiter the speaker wire that was thrown in.

    I’ve owned both the Terminator 2 & 3 speaker cables, both are great cables. I found them to be warm but still great detail. I’m sure the T4 is just as nice.
