I think some cables are just a little too expensive.


A while back a shop I did business with carried Transparent Audio Cables. They were so expensive it was obscene. They did sound good, but you had to move up from the bottom to the more idiotically pricey models to start to feel the magic. It had been several years ago and I wanted to check in on my old friends at Transparent Audio. This is their top of the line speaker cable. Now if you don't have a problem with this whole cable thing, this might push you over the edge. I can't imagine a speaker that would need such a cable. Wilson? Rockport? What amp? You can buy a nice luxury vehicle for the same price as a pair of speaker cables? Nelson Pass would be embarrassed to see these monstrosities on one of his amplifiers.

"Cable threads are not worth participating in much anymore." I feel that way about Audiogon period and have been very reluctant to post anything. I respect different opinions and like to have dialogue with people. So many threads on Audiogon turn into senseless arguments that prevents Audiogon members from learning anything. 
It is like buying a Rolex with emerald studs.  Does it keep the time any better than a $10 Casio ?  Nope.  Nuf said....
