Silly prices for Nordost cables

http://www.nordost.com/images/review-images/review-pdf/127555.pdf

$38000 for a 2m pair?
$17000 for a 1.5m power cord?
$20000 interconnect for 0.6 meters and only(!) $2000 for an additional 0.5 meter?

I know the debate is tired but this is beyond ridiculous.

If the manufacturers convince us that someone is actually buying this stuff then they can convince the average consumer that $500 to $1000 for speaker cables is inexpensive. I have to say that their marketing is working. I have spent more on my system in the last couple years than i ever believed would happen.  I haven't bought in on most of the tweaks though.

Simple solution, trust YOUR ear! 

If from marketing, blame but yourself.   Company is not forcing you to buy anything.

and if the dealer says you need Odin 2 with your NAD integrated and you buy it,  not Nordost's fault...
