Default Re: Connectors made from exotic materials.

Yeah, one is tempted to say here we go again, and - hands up - I'm normally sucked into these threads (what's new then? I hear you say!). And yes, I think it is the normal hifi rip-off, let's prise money out of these rich hifi mad executives who have more money than sense. Any arguments put forwards as to why that is not the case are usually based on things that - at best - affect the sound coming out of one's speakers so little as to be totally a waste of time and money. Like a grain of sand on a beach. If people spent all the extra money they have on smoke and mirrors components like exotic cables on buying really good, accurate, true monitor quality speakers - not "hand polished" ones made by 'someone who lives alone in the desert' (another smoke and mirrors situation, the go it alone 'guru') - then their system would sound so much better. And the final frightener.. ABX TESTING!!!!!!!
