This highly regarded cables and ready to be enjoyed.

Overall in excellent condition, the body of the silver RCA ends is hard to read, due to some light fading and fraying of the outer gold colored casing on the cable, so we are rating this pair at a 7/10 condition. The Aluminum case can be included at a $50 premium.

  These cables are known to be very revealing of everything in the audio chain, and said to add or subtract nothing of their own.

We have 2.5 pair's of these cables, one at 7/10 condition or better.  

Here is what positive feedback had to say in their 2005 review of the Palladium RCA cables.

Silver and Palladium cables
as reviewed by Fown-Ming Tien

If I had my experience with Silversmith cables stopped there, I would have been convinced that the Silvers were the most truthful interconnects available, but then I spent a few brief weeks the Palladiums. The only external difference between the Silvers and Palladiums is the gold mylar mesh that covers the Palladiums. Internally, they use the same thin Teflon tubes to house the ribbons. Since the conductivity of pure palladium is inferior to that of silver, I asked Jeff Smith why he used this material? He explained that he uses a palladium alloy rather than pure palladium, and that the alloy has energy storage characteristics that are up to 25 times better than those of pure silver, copper, aluminum, gold, or pure palladium.
While the Silvers are the best interconnects I have heard in the $2500-and-under category, the Palladiums are the best I have heard, period. They sound extremely similar to the Silvers. Everything I said about the Silvers applies to the Palladiums, but to a greater extent. The highs are even more glorious. The bass is cleaner and tighter, and has far more texture. With the Von Schweikert VR-4 Jrs not loaded (as they can be) with lead shot, the bass was overpowering, possibly because of the lack of mass loading. Focus was even more precise and controlled, with no compromise in musicality. Sarah McLachlan's voice and Stan Getz' saxophone had unparalleled texture, allowing more emotion to come forth. Highs were clean, extended, and smooth. Dynamics were simply slamming. Imaging was tight and precise, and the soundstage was impeccable. If you are seeking absolute sonic truth, these are the best interconnects you can buy. They will not warm up a lean-sounding system, nor will they tone down a bright one, but they will allow every bit of detail in the source material to emerge completely unimpeded. I played the John Hicks Trio's Sunshower again, listening intently for the brushwork. Clarity, nuance, and definition were even better than before. I could practically see and feel the brush moving around the cymbal. The soundstage in large orchestral pieces was the most precise I had ever heard. I could pinpoint the position of a trumpet call in Dvorak's New World Symphony. In the past, it had simply come from the same general vicinity as the wind section.

I was so amazed by and enamored with the Palladiums that I called one of my audio buddies and told him to hurry over to hear them. After hearing the Palladiums, he immediately outfitted his system with them! I also brought the Palladiums to the home of fellow PFO reviewer Robert Levi, where we experimented with them in both his primary and secondary systems. Although I was only able to hear them there briefly, I felt that they made as dramatic an impact as they had made in my system.

Hearing the Palladium interconnects in yet another system served to solidify my opinion of them. Mike Garner of Tweekgeek.com hosted a listening session at his home and invited a number of local audio enthusiasts. My friend who had purchased the Palladiums brought them to this session, along with his EMM Labs DCC2 DAC/preamplifier. The system we heard that day also contained a pair of NuForce Ref 8 monoblocks, my McCormack UDP-1 universal disc player (used as a transport), and a pair of SP Tech 2.1 speakers. The system sounded fantastic, but when the Palladiums went in, it suddenly reached a new level. It was more open, airy, and balanced than before. As with the other systems in which I had tried the Palladiums, images were precisely anchored and sharply focused. Bass had improved weight and definition. The midrange and highs were faster and cleaner, with excellent transparency. While the EMM Labs gear was in no small part responsible for the world-class sound, the system was dramatically inferior when the Palladium cables were removed.

Jeff had told me that his interconnects could be used as digital cables, so I decided to try them between my McCormack UDP-1 and the Dodson DA-218 DAC, on a day when I was hosting a listening session at my home. The results were stunning. Both the Silver and the Palladium interconnects blew away every digital cable we tried, including the one that came from Ralph Dodson, which had already outperformed all others, regardless of price. Once again, the benefits were startling clarity and focus, and the Palladiums sounded just like the Silvers, only better.
