I sincerly don't know why, but the "German technology" part is the one that made me laugh.

They also sell a 155lb power cable and don’t even bother to list a price, just “call for pricing.” I guess if you have to ask, you can’t afford it.

on a per pound basis -- probably a pretty good deal, y'know?

Plus -- 155 lbs. That is a lot of electrons*!
Enough to serve the average audiophile's signal transmission needs for a long, long time.

:cool:

On this theme:

https://www.audiogon.com/listings/l...s-signature-power-conditioner-ac-conditioners

A power conditioner, retail $65,000.

But you can grab it now for the cheap discount price of $23,000 !

I mean, look at it's shape! Gotta be worth something, right?

But remember, don't judge it too fast if you pay your money and don't hear anything amazing. It takes 1,000 hours to break in, per instructions!

I feel sorry for folks who get duped into purchasing products like this. I think we tend to imagine the people purchasing these things as having more money than they could ever spend, but I imagine there are also people saving for years for products like this under the assumption that it will transform their system.

Cyro treating Romex®, actually they are selling NM cable (Non-Metallic) will invalidate the cable's 'UL' listing. There are minimum & maximum storage temperatures for cables.

In my observation the “Break in Period”, is normally designed to push your decision to keep or return said product, just past the return window! I suppose that is just a coincidence of course. :rolleyes:
You could almost be accused of being a cynic with comments like that.
