Don't read you'll be sorry

>All I've done is type some words"

Agreed.

BUTT, it's how you type them and where you place them.

HEAD's up.

"No one should ever have to pay $3,000.00 for a pair of cables. Agreed? "

Think this through "Ty Cobb".

Nobody HAS to pay for cables, nor does anyone HAVE to buy a stereo system for that matter.

If someone CHOOSES to spend $3,000 for ANYTHING, why should it bother you? Do you suffer from cable envy? Are you falling victim to the beguiling tug of class warfare?

If someone wants to spend large sums of money they EARNED on something, I'm cool with it. Envy is a very malignant state and best avoided.

As my grandmother said " good for you is not the same as bad for me".

You from North Jersey? Michigan usually goes a little softer.

Who knows but you are probably a good guy.

I like the thread but the theater is kind of weak.

In reality cable replicas are the simpliest thing to replicate. No matter how many figures they worth, IT'S JUST A WIRE! What could be wrong with cables even if they're fake? Won't they have the same continuity test or even per-unit resistance/impedance? Even ones original would suffer difference to some magnitude one to each-other so you simply can't distinguish where is which one unless you know the true source of purchase. Now do the math and querry all hifi brands from DHGate and match them against ones sold in here HOW YOU ARE ASSURED THAT YOU'RE NOT BUYING FAKE? CAN YOU PROVIDE YOUR METHODS OF ANALYSIS???
The cables at DHGate sold at fraction of the price vs. original and even if you will resell cables at 50% off you'll still profit substantially from each re-sale like that. All you have to do is just unpack it, make some marks and signs of usage and sell them used!

So don't be sorry, just OPEN YOUR EYES. Wheather the feedback from DHGate positive or negative those who need to have an income will find ways to get product and to find supplier that does great job, great shipping, the one that accepts credit card or paypal and will establish line of business coz cable differences found MOSTLY in the way they look to naive consumer so I suggest to excersise more with your "listening tests" LOL!.

You may have different opinions such as "An individual can have a right to purchase $10,000 speaker cable", but for the manufacturer producing one I'd say there's a way to make it the same but much cheaper let's say for $500... What I would say simply SO BE IT! It's pure physics where every current shall see the load resistance and it's quite natural alais of any laws, regulations or Divine American Dignity. Do you think that genuine cable companies are fair to you as consumers? I think totally different. THEY ARE NOT and they all think that you are DUMB enough to purchase $10,000 pair of cables coz you have late model BMW and $80,000 speakers.

So check out how many pages you find at DHGate or Alibaba listings that sell any famous brand you can think off and see these prices and stop blaming happy OP that purchased brand new $3000 cable for fraction of price, coz actually he deserves to be happy if you think deep.
