$10k Speaker Cables??????????????

There are lots of speaker cables over $10k in the hifi world.  Masterbuilt, Nordost, Echole, and Argento just to name a few.  They are very good cables, but just not for everybody.

Also Purist Audio, Stage III, Jorma.

You see, the audio industry took a nod from government contractors that charged Uncle Sam  $10K for hammers and $40K for toilet seats. They finally caught on.

Nope, sorry, troll. There are reasons for exhorbitant prices for a toilet when the toilet is one Air Force One. The government doesn’t get charged high prices for all toilets, troll. We also see what happens when the government gives contracts to low bidders. You probably don’t see anything wrong with that.

I always wonder , if all marketing, R&D, markups removed, how much actually (parts and labor) those expensive cables costs? Would be interesting to know.
