$30,000 Speaker cables!?

[NMyTree]

No cables are worth $30,000.

No cables are worth $10,000.

No cables are worth even $1,000.

Your car analogy is ridiculous.

Let me ask you, does a Mercedes Benz have $30,000 worth of wiring in it?

Give me a break!

A majority of componenets and speakers don't even have $100. worth of internal wiring, input jacks, output jacks and binding posts. Not even components in the $100,000.-$250,000. price point.

Most components have simple thin wiring and even the ones that have some bulky thick wiring, still don't total up to $100.00 worth.

It's a facade.

I guess many the people that do invest in high end cables that have heard a difference in there systems are wrong then. I've seen may people with the same attitude as you that now own and swear by "expensive" cables.
Try to be a little more open minded when it comes to this stuff.You might be in for a suprize. Many a sceptic has come into our store and ended up eating his words(including myself-years ago before I worked there).I see your point but but you really owe it to youself to check things out at a high end store that is capable of doing a proper demo for you.Hey and if you can't hear a difference that's great for you and you can save yourself some dough!!But please try not to knock the many that gain improvements to their systems by purchasing more exotic cables. Remember this is a fun hobby and it's all about choice. Enjoy the music. :T

Actually, I'm putting a clamp in this now. Claude, as a dealer rep, you can't just be posting all this info about a specific brand name products you all sell. ooh ahh pictures used in a generic audio show perspective is one thing, but brand selling is an entirely different thing.

Besides, I can see a degeneration of this into a name calling match, so this thread is now locked.
