Cables more hype than value?

Does a $5,000 watch tell time any better than a $30 watch?

Answer: Perhaps it will, more often than not, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility that in other cases the reverse might be true, or the difference might be negligible.

I am somewhat reluctant to admit that I once owned a $5000 watch from a very well regarded manufacturer. It was an automatic watch, which is to say, its mainspring was wound automatically by the motion of the wearer's arm.

It kept time approximately as accurately as the clock on my dog's automatic feeder. Which is to say, it sucked.

Al, good one. I move that all Ferarris be banned and everyone must drive Toyotas.

Some people never fail to miss the point. The point is not that value and expense NEVER correlate. The point is that value and expense do not ALWAYS correlate.
