RE: QuickSilver contact enhancer on Cat5 speaker wire re. burn-in

Yes, that's the new name for the stuff. But I find the spray can easy and cheaper than the full strength bottle. Same formula and same effect. Just chose your product based on how you like to apply stuff and how much you like to pay.

Sondek says he did exactly what you did and liked the results after a while, so you can follow his advice more easily and evaluate how you like the sound in a few weeks, then change if dissatisfied.

Please be aware that a lot of HF tizz, brightness, etc. is actually RFI masquerading as HF information. There are different controls for that. REad up in the archives here for suggestions, starting with R-C filters at both ends of the cables. Those work fantastically well for me, and you can mock some up simply to test it too.
