Isn't it disappointing to see the garbage that comes to us as an upgraded product. I took apart an expensive Purist Audio power cord to reveal similar manufacture. I made my own power cord using top Furutech connections and Neotech wire. Anyway, all of your suggestions are valid...probably makes little difference.
Reterminate Speaker Cable or not...???? Monster ME2K sigma retro speaker cable
hello,
I just removed the tech flex jacketing, rubber boots and heat shrink surrounding my Monster SIgma ME2K sigma speaker cable, and found what you see in the pictures below.

There is some fraying of the copper strands, not all are compression welded in the copper sleeve, some fractured copper strands etc... nothing major.

This got me thinking should I do one of the following:
1.) Completely reterminate.
2.) Merely put heat shrink around the copper strands to contain them together
3.) Solder the frayed strands / silicone glue them all together
4.) Leave them alone and live with it
5.) Something else
Thanks!
