To whom it feels that @ a price of around $2,000 this cable is too expensive ...
This guy posted a video on YouTube, a sound demo of several... Power chords. (up to 6K$)
Most in the comments are sure to listen "night and day" difference. After careful listen, I'm pretty sure there is NOT ANY...
Oh my...
So many bullshit in only two sentences... I call that ART.

As this thread has been surprisingly very quite over the past 24 hrs., here there is a fun reading:

i find it incredibly difficult to believe that people actually believe this sort of nonsense.
just... why? why does this exist?
It existed because it Has been propagated by manufacturer’s, retailers and magazines for the last fifty years, it is shameful.
No one told the truth for fear of not getting to write the review, not getting the advertising, not being allowed to retail the product.

Bacon: no word would have been more appropriate for his site, manufacturers keep his palm very well greased!

Yes brilliant film, my first thought was spinal tap but then I thought as you could not really parody high-end audio as it's already so ridiculous a Borat style film where someone just goes around pretending to be bonkers and interviews actual real life audio nut jobs would work best.
As a nut job in recovery myself I think I could be convincing in the the lead roll .

a) They do speaker reviews, with measurements. ASR doesn't.
b) What they think affects resale value of your gear, so to that extent, even right minded people care a little

I think Amir wants to start doing speaker measurements and reviews as well. Good point about Stereophile effecting resale value. Though I don't think it helps that much, I still see class A recommended components losing over half their value 5 years later.

over 60% off!
I prefer to keep my gear for decades. Real technological progress (other than manufacturing technogy) in audio is slow. The only really big advance has been the introducton of successive digital sources and more recently dsp room eq.

I am equipped with speakers from PMC, the Twenty 5.26s, the FACT 12s would be a super-upgrade indeed but:
- $8,800 or so is over my budget
- the seller would never accept to ship them over to France
Still, this is a terrific deal for someone who lives within a reasonable driving distance from the seller's location!
Have you not been beaten to it by HiFi Plus, TNT Audio and plenty of others already?
What would your character be, tech billionaire looking for the best reproduction of the only record you have ever listened to, or hifi trainspotter with BO that could stop a tank and hearing aids that keep failing out?
A enthusiastic idiot, not a stretch for me ha ha
Obviously have to be slightly upper class , and give their wives and partners little bit too much attention attention they've probably been craving for quite some time.
Fleshing out the character now lol
More method than De Niro is the way to go.
I will manifest my inner Marlon Brando..
