Don't read you'll be sorry

also, in checking the Rockefeller specs, there is no silver. coating or otherwise. So, what is this wire actually?

Manitunc, Asuuming that this wire is Rockefeller. It could be another layer of deception since we're dealing with dishonest people. Bezels, wrapping and connectors are most likely very cheap.

well, thats my point. If it is silver coated, it isnt regular Rockefeller cable. PBN says the cable sheath says Rockefeller 3. I cant find any info on the "3" version to know if it is different that regular Rockefeller. but even if it isnt, it is being sold at 1/3 the price of regular Rockefeller, with different connectors, sheathing, and interior packaging. Seems like a lot of work for little gain. why not just call it rockefeller and sell it for 1/3 retail price without the additional work? Very odd business model.

Yes strange indeed - I've posted another picture with a lot more detail as well as description

I hooked up the wire in my system last night and listened for a few hours, its OK but slightly "lighter" sounding than my Kimber 16TC which projects more "weight"

Anyway a fun little experiment with a expected outcome - you get what you pay for :-)

As always - Good listening

Thanks

I suspect that once some people see $8500 cable for $380 they cannot resist and the fact that it is made in China makes whole thing believable. Of course there is also placebo effect - if you believe that it is K2 it will sound like one.
