Why pay so much?


If you want to think cables make a huge difference in sound fine...but why pay up to $70,000 for speaker wire?

You can buy 38 lbs of 99.99% bullion silver for $10,000 or 4000 lbs of 99.99% bullion copper.

Buying a pair of 12 foot $5,000 wire is obserd it costs like $30 to make and WBT connectors are also highly inexpensive to make too.

Why do you guys shell out money on a clear fact that you guys are insecure about using low priced stuff and these people know that and take advantage of that.

How do you guys let yourself taken advantage of?

You guys are really funny. Like, this is like being on the Flat Earth forums, where you see people convinced the Earth is flat. Just, it’s like a Kool Aid that’s being sipped.

Could it be that you have a passionate love for music, and it’s fun spending a lot of money to get " higher quality " speaker wires and better sound?

And that in actuality, you want so bad to believe that music can get more and more Accurate each year, that it’s just a never ending cycle of upgrading to get as close to the real thing as possible?

I get it. Upgrading speakers, audio cables and power wire, etc, processors and power conditioners and etc?

It’s a hobby. It’s something to do and you can spend hours fantasizing about new equipment.

I could probably hook up some Audioquest And MTI wiring, and "hear" a difference. I could probably sip the kool aid and think something is better. In many times in life, when there’s a will there’s a way. I assume though if you got me double blind tested, I wouldn’t be able to distinguish the fidelity though.

Like Scientology, the Flat Earth cult, etc, a good part of people just wants to break people free of placebo and incorrect stuff, because it’s frustration.

I hope one day you guys get some courage to do a truly 100% no possible error of scientific investigation in to this, and learn a lesson about life.

I kind of went through this right away when I entered the hobby, but I pretty quickly caught on to the big picture of the audio and video world.

Some people are faster than others to learning things like this in life.

It’s an important lesson to learn.

Good luck guys!

I said my peace, and I respect all of you.

Figure it out,

I’ll probably be done harassing you guys now.  

Burn away those audio cables so they break in well!

I was about to makea new topic dealing with this idea of spending$$$$$$$ on supposedly *new super high tech pure blahblahblah~~~ speaker/cable connects...I see funaudio has stated his idea very clean and has cleanly exposed the fraud. which brings me to My latest researchm,,as you guys know i try to be on
~~~The Cutting edge~~~ of all tweaks/mods..my mother was german, my great great great grandfather  was Horace Bushnell, america's greatest thinker,,and so i have  this knack at looking at all angles, figuring out what is best of the best. Here goes what i just discovered this morning,,so it is indeed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~BREAKING NEWS FLASH~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pure 100% copper RCA male and RCA female jack ends can be purchased off ebay. 
Thats step one in my $100 connects that will blow away any and every $50,000 interconnects in a  shootout,  ,.OK you have the RCA connects, now purcahse STERLING SILVER  (a  cheaper route vs pure silver) say 1.5mm thickness half round (1/2 round is cheaper vs round) connect the 1.5 MM 1/2 round sterling silver to each male rca connect,,,now replace your 2 cent RCA gold color stereo female jack plug with PURE COPPER RCA female jack,,,yeah look at your $50K amp, jadis, Mac, Krell etc ARC, etc etc ETC,,all have those 2 cent gold color trash jacks, including Jadis's 500 monos which are $50K + retail...ohh Jadis how could you..
Now  for speaker wire, use same sterling silver, 1.5 MM thickness or wrap 2 strands together for extra transition of electron flow. 
There you have it,,,all can be done for under $500 and can shoot out any and all super high end cables/speaker wires in a  NY minute.  Now i need to figure if the 1/2 round is like a  1/5MM cut in half,,maybe better spend tyhe extra few bucks and get the FULL ROUND, = more condunctance.

who won;t lead you astray. 

although silver possess onlya  small % greater conductivity vs copper, note the section under COMPLEX RESISTIVITY and CONDUCTIVITY,, scroll down you will see the section,,note the word SUSCEPTIVITY

Note the word SIEMENS, that is a key word here, although silver vs copper are very close,,my guess is what is the nature of the electron flow inside silver vs copper,,,My guess is the SIEMENS inside the silver flow are more happy = more zing,,,to the electrons vs the electrons inside the copper flow. 
Remember there is a socalled ~~~Imaginay~~~ nature to electrical conductivity,,called SIEMENS,,,very hard to measure,,,which is why i prefer silver sterling as my prefered choice vs copper cables/wires. 
You can make your own $50,000 cables/speaker wires for under $500 fora  complete system, 3 pairs interconnects, 6 ft biwire silver speaker wires, all under $500, vs the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ snakeoil brands.
