This may be a dumb question, but MIT has taken down the product info for the terminator line... Where does the terminator 6 stack up against the 5 or 4...or 3?

Is higher or lower better?

Thanks!

    Lower is better, I believe that's the case with all their cables but don't quote me.

    Agreed. I've got Terminator 3's and 4's, the 3's are noticeably thicker and have higher quality ends on them.

    Yeah, I thought that was the case, but all the 2's and 3's that I saw had the old-school, ****-ugly boxes, so I started to second-guess myself.

    Those ****-ugly boxes (your words) are where the magic is.

    Personally, I love the looks of the boxes, says bad **** in my book.

    I've got nothing against boxes... comparing within the MIT line, the 2's and 3's are the red-headed step children in the looks department; this made me question whether I had the pricing/ quality the right way around.

    Ah, I see what you're going on about. The "white" cables are the very early versions. All the later Terminator series cables are gray.
