High Fidelity Cables?


I’ve noticed for the past week or so, that my favorite cable manufacturer, High Fidelity Cables, is closed due to Covid.  Anyone know anything more?

@raysmtb1 You are not ’well aware’ of anything. Virtual Dynamics was started in the late 90’s. He specifically closed it in 2010 to pursue the magnetic tech which had investor money and many patents behind it. He could have just continued VD until today to keep you happy but chose the more difficult/exciting path of new advances in signal technology.

But this required partners and with that the higher overheads - much higher than all the one man band cable companies that are just buying RCA connectors and wire from an industrial catalogue.

It lasted 10 years and yes it never worked out. But consider he was only a part owner of the company and perhaps it wasn't his decision to pull the plug.

But then to imply from that he is a serial business defaulter is totally unfair IMO. He has been in this industry for close to 25 years and after ONE time this happens out pop all these false claims about him.

Rick has always done well by me. His products are great and i will continue to do business with him when needed.

I know I will just steer away from any company this guy is affiliated with. To many stories and where there is smoke there is fire. 

@agisthos and @68pete

Other than the fact he has apparently ripped off tranchautuan for several $thousand and is not making any timely attempts to pay him back he is just a peach of a fella.

This is of course assuming, as I am, that tranchautuan's claim is valid.

hi all,

Just some updated on my situations, but here the overall timeline:


1, around 09/2021 ,I've sent my cable to HFC for an upgrade, that time I contacted just thru HFC facebook website and later  HFC Casey thru email. not thru Rick directly

2. When I done my payment thru VISA then as a lot of you know, HFC went silent and I can't contact them , to this moment.

3. Seeing Rick recent activity thru this sub, I contacted him. Rick explain to me that the time he wasn't an employee of HFC (Magnetic innovations) anymore, although he's the main inventor of HFC before . So the event of HFC massive 60% discount and disappear is not related to him.

4. But still he sent me his latest cable as a gift, I don't have to pay anything but shipping fee. And for me. that such a kind hearted action. So I recommend to do business with him directly, not thru any company like the last time., That's is of course, your purse feel comfortable.

So, happy listening you guys
