Do Cables Wear Out?

Jeff_jones, you are forgetting that the aforementioned virgins are kept emotionally stable by sipping constantly from mugs of fresh milk expressed from dairy cows who have been kept in a state of constant bliss by playing to them Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmuzik 24-7.

I do have to admit thee are times when "something is not right"---perhaps a buzz in one speaker, a fallen bi-amped connection to one of my speakers, or maybe my Satellite box re-setting itself to factory settings and outputting Dolby instead of PCM so my DAC can't decode it that it is possible my whole system's lifespan is somewhat threatened. Especially shortly after the second glass of wine which about when "something goes wrong".

With all of this great information finally coming to light, I've decided to lease my cables instead of owning. Complete with a 36 month/36,000 hour warranty from Rent A Cable, I no longer need to worry about excessive electron wear, emotional stunting, and AC corrosion. Catch the wave.

Obviously there isn't enough to worry about!

Audiofeil, I like your idea! I'd imagine the payments on a $500 cable might work out to be $628 over three years. I wonder what the residual value will be at the end of the lease? At least excessive wear you mention would be covered under warranty, heheh.
