| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? In an earlier post someone was touting (promoting? selling?) Nordost Odin cables (see link at bottom). A quick and dirty calculation determined that to equip a stereo system (preamp/amp/player/speakers) with this line of cables, it would cost $17... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Cats can easily be herded, NoNoise. Just show them shiney, bouncy, visually appealing things that cost way more than barn mice...and smell like they might taste better, and they will jump toward them. Not knowing (or caring) that the decrepid ol... | |

| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Of course it is true. The higher you price an item, the better the quality becomes.....Or not.The Value Equation keeps us sane and smart. Quality ÷ Price = Value. | |

| Decided to change my cd player, suggestions please? Buy an Oppo 105 and use the dedicated Sabre DACs for critical stereo or multi-channel listening direct from disc. For more casual listening, rip all your CDs to FLAC (lossless format) and move them to an external hard drive. Plug that into your ... | |
| The demise of the music CD inevitable? I've read the above posts with some interest and offer these personal comments/opinions in no particular order.1. CD "rot" might be due to mishandling or poor storage. I still own a number of original CDs from 1984 and they all still look and pla... | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable "Build it and they will come." "Make cables at outrageous prices and they will buy." | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable From recent posts, it seems like many of the responders are "in the business" of selling audio equipment; that would include relatively expensive cables/wire/interconnects. I can't help but believe there HAS to be bias in their expressed opinions. | |

Anyone who spent hundreds or thousands of $$$ on cables/interconnects is NEVER going to admit he may have overspent or made a mistake or suggest th... | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable Stringreen said: "...or expensive watches..."That reminded me of when my brother-in-law bought a Rolex and was touting how great it was. I think it was a one of the cheaper models and about couple grand. Bottom line is that a watch is for timeke... | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable I read an article some few years ago that it blind A/B testing of mainstream (cheap) interconnects versus very expensive interconnects, no listener could tell the difference. My belief is that you can build anything to a basic standard and if you... |
