Absolutely Amazing Absolute Power Cords

Gregm: Where do you live? We ship packages to the UK, Italy and Australia on a pretty regular basis (family and friends) and the postage is not that much and some of these are fairly substantial packages. Tip: Don't ship chocolate to Italy for Easter unless the receiving party is intending to use it for fondue. Our average cost is $20-$35.

I read Bill's challenge in Audiogon and after seeing his website and the fine brands he carries (I own JMlab speakers). I concluded that either he was a fool or a real well founded marketing strategist. I ordered a cord within a few days and just got it for a power amp I have back home. Bill told me to use it in my CD player (Cambridge D300SE) in the meantime...that I would be surprised. After receiving the cord and observing its construction I phoned Bill again. He told me the science behind its construction. The manufacture(Chinese)accounts for its cost. The feedback? HOLY SHIT!!! Bill has kicked the anthill...the Voodoo cable community is in deep shit. No more chanting, no more pseudomathematical explanations, no more silver...see you next life!

Psychicanimal-Thanks...it was looking grim for a while so I am glad you have spoken. I too am very pleased with the Absolutes. They have made me realize that my system is good enough to stand on its own. This is not about thumbing our noses at the big boy cable manufacturers or non-believers. It is about taking the illusion of music playback to a higher level and to turn our fellow Audiogon members on to a great product. Unfortunately there will always be people who do not believe. But did that come as a surprise? It didn't to me. Hell, I had red flags go up also. But it also took me back to a time long ago (1980?) when the owner of the store I would visit tried his best to convince me how my system would sound better with these fancy interconnects made by Audio Technica. HA! It was the same night he showed me a Sony "Walkman"... another novelty that will die quickly. Or so I thought. So lets all try to keep an open mind when it comes to these forums. That doesn't mean that the non-believers should stay quiet! Hell no! But lets keep it in the context of construction criticism of the component in question instead of bashing the person using it.

I am not bashing persons. The Voodoo cable community is a cult. Period. Its priests' main purpose in life is to make money creating an aura of 'magic'. As Deano said, audio is about creating the illusion of music in one's living quarters. The Voodoo has kept consumers from getting great products at reasonable prices. This is what I mean when I say that Bill has kicked the anthill. Once again, the free market economy has won and benefited the consumer...

I'm going to take my Monster HTS2000 out of the system and run these straight into the outlet as the salesman recommended. I can't wait to see how it sounds. I hope for a big improvement. I'm using an Audio Refinement Complete amp and Magnepan MMG speakers.
