New $24,000 inter-connect

@jhills - You are absolutely correct.   I do believe that is the reason for so many naysayers - no science to back up what you hear implies marketing hype.    And, there is plenty of that to go around in this industry.

To clarify: I do not believe that all cables sound the same, but I do know, for a fact, that all cables of the same length built to the same established standards of low capacitance, low inductance and low resistance, using quality conductors and connectors - will sound the same. Which is to say they will pass an un-colored, un-obstructed signal from component A to component B. After all, isn't that the purpose?.......Jim

$24k cables is certainly an insult to working people but so are many other things. $3k bottle of wine is even worse, as an example.
As for the sound, it's another point. 
Anyway, $100k monoblocks and $50k turntables sound reasonable compared to that. 

inna"$24k cables is certainly an insult to working people"

There is no reason, logic, or sense in allowing yourself to be degraded, demeaned, or insulted by an inanimate product, object, or device.

FYI... he was the VP and Founder of Tara-labs which the FBI raided the company due to counterfeit cables.  Please see attached:
