    I wonder how much of an upgrade these would be to the stock jumpers that come with the 703s.

    Good question. They look to be decent for stock on the LSiMs.
    I am sure it will be an improvement on the RTiAs.

    Why's that Marvin? Is it for flexibility in case of switching SCs with different connectors?
    I disabled signatures.

    He's got one. Can't really see it in these photos but he has a classy looking Cursive signature on all of the products I have seen from him.

    yes, what do you do if you have cables that end in bananas??? and if it has spades on both ends if the spades on the speaker end are thick? you run into problems trying to double up connections.

    After all this time, I thought since I ordered custom cables that he had taken the first letter of my first name and created a monogram on the nanners just for me. Now i'm feeling a bit let down. :unamused:

    what if I wanted to let you listen to some other cables that happen to have bananas or you have a chance to buy a pair of say mit's at a great price but they have bananas?
    see what I mean.

    I totally get your point and it is a valid scenario to think about.
    Since it’s my HT setup and I had already purchased speaker cable and have no plans to replace it all throughout the room. I just went for bananas.

    Now if we are talking a 2 channel setup for my basement later. I will go combo on the jumpers.
    I will be trying more than 1 cable for sure.
