No Carl -eber, I am not a dealer, just an audiophile with an open mind and ear. I am new to this site, but have noticed that if someone disagrees with you, Carl, you go into a tirade. That is your choice. Mine is to discuss the strong points of a breakthrough product. I realize that others that have posted here are indeed dealers, but be assured that I have no monetary gain from promoting this wonderful new cable. if you aren't pleased with the FIM, that's fine. But please, let's conduct ourselves as MATURE adults. Let's leave the school yard stuff to the children.
