why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable


I have tried expensive cables and one's moderately priced. I would say there were some differences but I can't actually say the expensive cables were better. IMHO I believe a lot of people buy expensive cables because they don't actual trust their ears and are afraid of making a mistake. They figure the expensive cables are better for the fact they cost more. If you have a difference of opinion or share the same thoughts, I would like to hear about it.

I agree Dave. In the Jorma range, the Unity cables to me represent the sweet spot in their range, though I would go for the Origo pc's as they are quite a bit better than the Unity model.
Jmcgrogan2 and Kijanki, if it's on the radio now I don't blame you for not liking it. I'll bet I could play you some current Country music you would like, stuff that doesn't get played. There is a substantial and thriving "alternative" Country music community that produces a lot of great stuff. Check out the No Depression website. ND covers "Americana" artists like Buddy Miller, Jim Lauderdale, Marty Stuart, and hundreds of others.

And everyone hates us for it, don't they? I say, there's plenty of money out there and if you don't have any its your own fault. Stop crying like a bunch of babies.

Also you need to be naive enough to spend substantially more than actually needed. Scenic statement "This is how much $$$$$ I can spend on wires" is completely foolish.

Why would anyone HATE naive and foolish seriously? They give away money for nothing or for someone who sells. I believe that any business owner or seller must LOVE and respect them indeed! They give a great opportunity to invest $20...30 in parts and sell that wire for thousand$ if not more... There are moms who buy diapers $125 each and I don't see why anyone have to hate them too.

Czarivey, I wouldn't say all high end cables are way over-priced, though yes there are many companies which make huge profits. I'll avoid naming names as that has ended up in more than one major dust up before. Suffice to say, Jorma Design imho is one of the better value high end cable manufacturers, especially when compared to Nordost and Captain Cobalt's favourite wire, Tara Labs. ps: Don't ever listen to Jorma Statement sc's...you might need a diaper because of how good they sound ;)
