When I see a product like this, with the ridiculous claims made by the manufacturer / reseller, I'm compelled to call the relevant government agencies to report fraud.

Was going to look at the Nordost website to see if they offered USB 3 cables or Thunderbolt cables. It is so slow it timed out several times before it would load a page. I wonder if they are using their own cables to connect everything???? Or is it GoDaddy's fault?
.
Modems have been targeted for a while now.
On a more serious note, I'd pay good money (not $1400) for a lightning cable that my kids couldn't break every five minutes.
Good Luck! I bought a
WIRELESS charger for my niece & she found a way to break that too! Genuinely impressed that playground equipment lasting as long as it does.
About the USB cable.
WHO ONE EARTH??? I am fine with paying more for a custom made item with real craftsmanship. But this is just sloppy.
WHO Silk screened this?
Oh COME ON GUYS! WTF!
YOU had
ONE JOB... Make a cable that someone would be PROUD to own.
At the VERY least you could make it visually and aesthetically amazing.
There is ZERO excuse for this kind of lazy work. This is NOT hand painted. Or stamped. And if it was? Time to get a new Rx.
I would say this is a counterfeit cable. But these images came from Nords own site.
If your reading this?
Contact Wendell, and Level1 Techs and get Krista to redo your site.
You need someone with more attention to detail that will catch these things.
Not only that. but your cable... I should want it. I am YOUR CUSTOMER!
I even own some of your cables. And this is just embarrassing. At least I could point out to the superior construction compared to other cables on the market. I can't even do that!
I know this is the Entry level cable. But as I said. I buy things that I like almost Purely on aesthetics. And that's the one thing you have done really good in the past. Whatever the owners of Nordust is doing now? I'm not happy with.
Attention to detail is part of the audio mantra. Your selling an image and a lifestyle. And this is just not doing it. I hope this is a wake up call to get back on the floor and making great items again that anyone would treasure to own. Even if they don't do ANY better then regular cables. They should still stand out. And the fact that your cables themselves look like some knock off is embarrassing.
You don't wear tennis shoes to a wedding unless you plan to run away. And this is just sad.
Word of advice? Get rid of the Goofy printing. Its the FIRST thing that popped out. And just like that, I no longer want these anymore.
DO BETTER.
Ahem,
Not saying I own these cause I don't want to be THAT GUY..
But man.. Come on!
