Hey you can get the refurbished one for only $4999.99...

I bet it's worth every bit of $3.99

Went to buy some CD's into Longview yesterday. Crazy shitdriving assholes everywhere. Longest line I saw was at the Recycle / Junk yard. Whole string of pickups with everything from beer cans to the transmission out of his mothers car. Need Christmas money!
Wonder how many fools spent their house payment on useless crap this weekend ?

OMG. I thought Monster cables were a rip off. This is just, well, I dunno, insane.

So, I couldn't stand it, I had to look at the specs:

Product Features

* Solid PSS Silver
* Dual Star-Quad Geometry
* 72V Dieletric Bias-System
* Optimized for Full-Range

Technical Details

* Brand Name: Audioquest
* Model: K28'PR/USTS


Am I reading that right? Are they saying these cable are made of solid silver?

My metallurgy is pretty rusty ( pun intended ).

I don't recall silver having the ductile strength to make for a good resilient wire.

Not that I would do anything different than I do now even if I could afford it.

The cables I get from the local store work fine.
