Most Important, Unloved Cable...

Ethernet. I used to say the power cord was the most unloved, but important cable. Now, I update that assessment to the Ethernet cable. Review work forthcoming. 

I can't wait to invite my newer friend who is an engineer who was involved with the construction of Fermilab, the National Accelerator Lab, to hear this! Previously he was an overt mocker; no longer. He decided to try comparing cables and had his mind changed. That's not uncommon, as many of you former skeptics know. :)

I had my biggest doubts about the Ethernet cable. But, I was wrong - SO wrong! I'm so happy I made the decision years ago that I would try things rather than simply flip a coin mentally and decide without experience. It has made all the difference in quality of systems and my enjoyment of them. Reminder; I settled the matter of efficacy of cables years before becoming a reviewer and with my own money, so my enthusiasm for them does not spring from reviewing. Reviewing has allowed me to more fully explore their potential.  

I find fascinating the cognitive dissonance that exists between the skeptical mind in regard to cables and the real world results which can be obtained with them. I'm still shaking my head at this result... profoundly unexpected results way beyond expectation. Anyone who would need an ABX for this should exit the hobby and take up gun shooting, because your hearing would be for crap.

I think "clearthink" has a "thing" for " the experienced and knowledgeable moderators" of this forum.

Kinda reminds me of the cowardly lion and the "Great and Powerful Wizard of OZ."  If clearthink says it was a scam, by God it must be.  Oh, and ignore that man behind the curtain.

dynaquest4 says " If clearthink says it was a scam,  by God it must be. "

The determination of a SCAM was by this groups moderators and not by me that is why the posts by jinjuku were deleted also dynaquest4 was if I recall correctly also involved with the SCAM by claiming to put up money in the cable challenge so it's clear that dynaquest, jinjuku, and shandorne (same person) are all involved with this scam in one way or another although it is true that dynaquest may not have realized it was a scam he was getting involved with.

Clearthink clearly thinks he cannot be wrong and his declarations are gospel.  Accordingly it makes no sense to continue to consider him a relevant player in this conversation.  I will ignore him heretofore.

I do not think you know what heretofore means dynaquest because it make's no sense in this context you are just another of the extremely confused, disoriented, winkly dinklers in this thread very much of which has been all about a scam that the knowledgeable moderators have wisely chosen to delete many of the posts in that were part of the scam and increasingly you and shandorne and jujinku all seem to be the same sockpuppets talking to each other.
