Has Anyone Criticized The Choice Of Your Cables?

For the record, I'm not going to try his suggestions of using stock cords. That is drivel to me as well but still it is solely his opinion. In order not to end up with a heated argument, his advice entered my right ear but went out through my left.

So he's a dealer......figures. I've always found it rather amusing when dealers have told me my gear, cables, etc. are crap, and fortunately for me, they carry the "good" stuff. I especially love it when they use phrases like "blows your X away" or " kills your X".

Just shrug and laugh it off....it's cheap entertainment.

Cheers,

What's good about OEM PC's? Nothing!
Why? Two words:
Underwriter's Laboratory

Now you know.

You should all be glad most manufacturers don't waste your money (and their own) by providing anything more than the minimum necessary to meet UL rules.

Don't get me wrong. OEM PC's will work - barely! Their conductor size (AWG) will be the minimum required by the power consumption of the equipment they come with. And if that equipment is digital and radiates RFI? then the cable will also be a shielded cable. EXCEPT (as required by UL) the shield will be connected to the ground conductor at both ends - a guaranteed hum antenna!

He's not a Linn dealer is he?

Honestly, no. I have a different problem. The friends do not leave the room, because they hear things, they never heard before. Cables are like components, they can lift a System or they can make it dull, but I don't think they will change a System completely.
