Your welcome, as I do love getting into those in-depth researching modes at least twice per week, as it also helps in keeping the mind active, so that I don't get side tracked and go off into my usual venting ( ranting ) mindset looking at the activities around the globe in a more watchful of late.
Yet like you, I too adore the Accuphase housing, and just intend to place the blades on any of the incoming plugs directly into each end, with the exception being in trying out the carbon fiber brass thingies that is. I'm also about to call it a wrap on the plugs, as I've found myself very taken with three different mixtures of plating or unplating types, where it merely becomes a matter of tailoring the sound of each component accordingly, but I've felt since 2012, when coming over to computer audio, that it seems the DAC or digital source ( a Mac Mini in my earlier stage ) always responded to a particular flavoring of cable, be it a usb cable, power cord or pair of interconnects?, but it always appeared more responsive to either pure silver or silver plated copper ones, once again I've to think this is because digital playback acts differently when it comes to transient detailing abilities within said type of wiring is used in itself.
Once again, as the jargon goes YMMV, but I've long believed copper simply slowed things down, while making the sound more comfortable and all, it was very very capable of putting me to sleep within minutes of turning the system on, detail | resolution | attack or all qualities I can't live without, if I craved a warmish, mellowed presentation?, I'd then prefer to place a tubbier sounding tube integrated amp into the system, offset with say several pieces of Cardas or MIT based cables to hold things in check, but than again that's probably why my main 3 integrated amps located within arms reach, reside in the living room, whereas the tube amplification is only used on occasion in our main bedroom, I just grew tired of the required maintenance which more often than not come with owning tube gear, the heat from the power tubes themselves can overtime merely dry out all of the internal components, even soldering can become effected, and don't forget those aging ass tube sockets loosen as well as crack from the heat off these power tubes as well, which is why I chose to pursue hybrid based designs as far back as 2014.
See, there I go allowing myself to get off topic, but in someways it's all ties together in so many ways, because without the means to play one's music, I don't think many of us would be posting said concerns, as for the Accuphase SCs, I to am very surprised no one has tired them, given their low ass cost, I believe many have become to catch upon the notion if it's to cheap, just how good can it be?, I can only speak for myself..., the $1.000 and $2800 SCs have long existed the building, in favor of 6 different pairs, ranging on average between $150 for the cheapest 4, to $480 for the more expensive two, and guess what?, I'm more drawn into actual listening further into the music as a result of it, as before I've to believe I was more caught up on listening to the components instead, yet aging has a very weird way of teaching even us older dogs new tricks, " Bow Wow " indeed. Do forgive the corny ass gesture ( attempt at written humor) I just had to let it out.
