9 out of 10
Feature:
The hex screw is great. I used to over-twist my screws. They weren't hard to figure out how to make cords (I used to be a tech so maybe my skills are a little bit more than a third try type). The cable was a little long and so I called Core One and asked for more connectors. They sold them to me--no problem.
Quality:
The look is great. So is the rest of the Core X2 cable line. This company also makes Bullet Cable--FYI. I use their coil cables and have even used them in the studio.
Value:
Superior. I gave an over-all 9 because I don't believe in perfect anything, but this really is the best for the money.
Desirability:
It is simple and streamline. I think that it looks high-end. Sexy--no, but the sound I make using the product is!
Sound:
The wire and connectors are superior to George L's. When they first came out, I had some dead tone and I called Core One. The customer service guy said that they had heard of a few defected connectors (first run r & d stuff) and that they would replace my connectors immediately. I was a little hesitant, but when I got the connectors in, I was seriously blown away. George L's cables are not engineered. These cables are engineered for sound. I was a hardcore George L fan. I'm sad to say it, but I have been converted to Core One.
Ease of Use:
Engineered--OFC--these are key words. The connectors by the way are solid brass--not plastic. This kit is serious.
Support:
No problem or complaints. The customer service people don't even give you the attitude like you have done something wrong and you have to prove your case. Second call I made, Ted McCann took my call. Ted is the designer and President of the company. Pretty cool.
Overall:
Lifetime Warranty. I'm not sure that I really need to seek out.

Feature:
Again read the facts they are using OFC copper and gold connectors. These connectors are actually VERY heavy duty. Just my opinion but I think the core stuff is the top shelf for solderless....
Quality:
DO I need to repeat read the construction. They are using the best components....
Value:
best $50 bucks I spent on cable.
Desirability:
looks cool.
Sound:
Ok - I have no idea what the other guys are talking about. Based on the construction alone they use better cable than GL's. I bought mine based on facts shielded cable is MUCH better than wire guys! So I hooked mine up and yes it is not a 5 second deal but they sound great. They are dead quiet - again I think the other reviewer must have hooked them up wrong or something. Well i am very happy with the Core stuff.
Ease of Use:
Easy but cutting the cable is a bit tricky. But they do give you 20 feet that is 10 more than GL's so i was not concerned....
Support:
I did call them because I had cable left over and I needed more connectors I guess they will have them in the market soon....
Overall:
seems it will last pretty good....
