Do Cables Wear Out?

Since I regularly use my interconnects to whip my girlfriends, the termination on my cables usually lasts no more than a couple weeks before flying apart during a particularly heatd session.

I only use Acoustic Zen or Z Squared because of their extra abrasive jackets.

Audiofeil, I like your idea! I'd imagine the payments on a $500 cable might work out to be $628 over three years. I wonder what the residual value will be at the end of the lease? At least excessive wear you mention would be covered under warranty, heheh.

Tvad, would this be like checking to see if you can still see the top of Abe Lincoln or FDR's head?

Tvad, using a penny or dime is how old timers determined if it was time to buy a new set of tires. If you could see the top of the President's head you have enough tread left. If not, time to fork out the dough!

Mitch2, you're a smart man. No matter how gorgeous the woman, I'd never, ever drink her bath water.

"Knarkle" valves? I'm frightened already. But from a fashion stand point what you describe would be an ideal match for Gilbert Yeung's Preamp Purse and Pump Monoblocks.

"upcoming Tunguska region event"? They knew the meteorite was gonna hit before it did? :•)

Those poor reindeer.
