Default Transparent ultra spk cables direction
Hello!

I just got a used TRANSPARENT AUDIO ULTRA MM2 SPK CABLES and there's no arrow about direction to connect, so in one end I have a bent spades and the other one flat spades, I'm assuming that the bent spades it's for amp connection and the flat one for the speakers as the TRANSPARENT AUDIO ULTRA LOGO it's going this direction.
Any comments will be appreciate it.

thanks in advance

Not trying to instill doubt, or fear but; are you sure they are authentic?

All Transparent cables that I have seen have arrows, or writing for proper direction.

Do they have networks (the little plastic box of top secret electronics)? If yes, the networks always go to the downstream end.

Yes they have it, and have found that the bent spades goes to the speaker

What power cords are you using? The power cords in my experience tend to smooth things out quite a bit. I think they make as big a difference or bigger than IC and speaker cable.
