had some experience with chords...

good cables as all rounder with a natural sounding...

about the tweeter pod, if its concealed then i think you are better having the holes drilled bigger or something... wouldnt recommend reducing the wire size...

cheers...

dunno about your cable can do this or not...

if the insulator is thick and cant go through some tight bends... you can use a lighter to slightly warm up the insulator and bend it... but never pull it too hard while its hot... cuz you might peel the whole thing off...

likewise for me the best way to peel the wire ends is to burn the insulator till its hot and peel it off while its hot.. that way you minimise the chances of cutting the stands within...

good luck...

cheers...
