Hi,
I've put together a few diy cables through the years and I would say that the Furutech RCA's are the weak link in the Crystal cable. However I didn't cut them off and tried something 'better' so I can't confirm my suspicion. By the way there are some really expensive 'snakes' on the market that doesn't sound good at all so spending a lot of money isn't a guarantee to good performance.
To be totally honest I never really reached the same stereo perspective that I had with one 200 even if it is highly marginal now with 'better' cable and RCA-XLR.
