Silly prices for Nordost cables

If the manufacturers convince us that someone is actually buying this stuff then they can convince the average consumer that $500 to $1000 for speaker cables is inexpensive. I have to say that their marketing is working. I have spent more on my system in the last couple years than i ever believed would happen.  I haven't bought in on most of the tweaks though.

Simple solution, trust YOUR ear! 

If from marketing, blame but yourself.   Company is not forcing you to buy anything.

and if the dealer says you need Odin 2 with your NAD integrated and you buy it,  not Nordost's fault...

This thread is an entertaining read. The title of the thread clearly, is going to get the predictable responses. I'm  listening right now,  to my system WITH this  maligned brand and it sounds gooood.

As long as you've tried it, and it doesn't fit with your sonic goals, how about just move to the next brand without the negative comments? There are several "giant killer"brands for cheap. Plenty of threads with users claiming their  $200  speaker cable sounds just as good or better than Nordost cable.

Let the rich buy the super high end of cable lines so that R&D is funded and the mfg can use same technology with the entry/ low mid level products.
