Wow Tony - That's a very generous price!
These were RSAD demos Tony bought from us in Feb. '08. I can tell you he paid a good amount more. The !! designation was indeed by accident. We were just transitioning from !! to !!! when we made these but to be clear, these are not the newest "P"!!! R-v3 designation and neither are they $1770.00 for new at our current promo pricing.
Yes, we can re-do the ends and put the appropriate badges on them. Current badges are finished as:

Length will wind up to be about 5' 8". You can inquire with us for cost to re-do the ends.
Tony just acquired a pair of Innersound Kaya 'stats (very nice speaks BTW) and will be upgrading to the Alethias!.
A small Brief regarding our biwire approach:

Biwire "Shotgun" Illustration Each cable has its own +/- conductors. | A word on our Biwire Speaker Cables. As seen in the illustration to the left, our Biwire cables are two discrete sets of cables. This is also termed as "Shotgun". In our experience, we believe the Shotgun approach will yield the best performance when biwiring. The benefits are had because this arrangement allows distance of the low end cable from the high end cable. This minimizes the lower end cable's electrical field's ability to influence the high end cable. This isn't so with the more common biwire approach of sheathing both pairs in one jacket or just splitting the number of conductors in a standard cable to run it biwire. Our discrete approach also lets us tweak the low end and high end cables to perform optimally to each cable's requirements. While the low end cable uses 7 ga. conductors (edit: In this set), the high end cable uses 12 ga.
