MIT or MITH?

Please Please stop the talk of the cheap parts inside something. Under that logic, the cost of the raw material in a Lexus or Mercedes is not much different than a Chevy, so the Lexus or Mercedes must be a rip off.

Look the profit margin on the parts alone has nothing to do with it at all. In MIT's case they have spent millions of dollars on research so they have to and can charge more because they own the patents to the great sound there wire puts out. With all that being said I use their interconnects but no longer feel the need to shell out the bucks for expensive speaker wire since I found that a solid core 14 gauge from home depot ($6 for 25') works way better than $3800 wire. I'm not kidding either. It actually sounds better. Yeah it's really really stiff though.

I used the new MIT 750 Shotgun Biwire speaker cable last year. It was MUCH better than the considerably cheaper Kimber 4TC I previously used and MUCH better than the more competitively priced double run of Audioquest Midnight I was comparing it with. I sold it (along with a few other comp. to pay for my wedding) and missed it dearly. MIT is not a scam product. I don't know if the parts quality in the "network" is low, nor do I really care. If it sounds better (which it did in my system) then it is better (in my system!). For the MIT naysayers, just try it in your system and if it doesn't do it for you, then move on to the next cable.

Sugarbrie; if you don't think my BMW has better parts quality than a Chevy, I've got some beach property in Ohio to sell you. I disagree with the premise that parts quality has nothing to do with a product. However, I do agree that someone, somewhere, could probably make some decent sounding amp with parts from Home Depot. But it certainly wouldn't be easy and I don't think it's done very often. Parts quality means a lot to me, although it is very difficult to know what you're getting with cables. And Carl, I'm best friends with the biggest Nordost dealer in the US, and the margins on those are nowhere near what they are w/ the MIT. Listen, if you folks like the sound of MIT, keep them; I'm not saying you're wrong. I merely pointed out facts and my opinion. Just curious: It doesn't bother anyone that the number one reason a dealer shd carry mit is profit?

No Soupcon, what better incentive! If I was a dealer and the hook was carry my line because the profits are thinner than the competition then what do you think I would do. The deal closer IMO with MIT is bigger profits and great performance. I work for a supplier/manufacturer in a different industry and I spend every day trying to become more profitable as does my distributor as does the retailer at the end of the chain and the hook is - push my brands because of increased margins for you, and like MIT they happen to be quality brands. Why should the high end electronic industry be any different.
