why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable

Here's a thought...what is the raw material value of a Picasso vs market value? Making any sense to all you expensive cable contrarians? There is no direct correlation between materials used and retail. Are you guys all really that slow on the uptake or are all of you voting for Bernie and his merry band of socialists?

Sorry mikelavigne, I assumed you had Grandmaster speaker cable's, since you have Grandmaster Interconnect's, that is odd not to have a full loom of these cable's, man-o-man are you missing alot of performance, I run a full loom.

Mikelavigne, you should pm me concerning the Taralabs Grandmaster speaker cable's.

John deere, get off the phone...Captain Cobalt has a new customer!

I never thought Picasso was all he was made to be. Art is a very subjective topic that deal with emotions, no reality. Not what I want in a cable. It's an interpretation, a approximation meant to draw in the viewer and leave it to him or her to fill in the rest. Sometimes it's like the Emporer's New Wardrobe. It's gotta be good! Look who made it!

Using a visual analogy, I'd like something more with a photographic angle.

Oh, and there's a world of difference between a socialist, and a democratic socialist. To inject Bernie into this conversation will only heat things up since lines have already been drawn. Stick to better analogies. :-)

All the best,
