Snake oil companies are out of their minds

[Pandaman617]

All of us here understand that doing things like replacing your OEM shorting bars with these pretty things isn’t going to effect sound quality by any means and clearly neither is spending $6500 on silver speaker cables. What blows me away is that so many of these companies manage to thrive for so many years! It leads me to believe Audioholics is the minority in what is already a relatively niche hobby.

could be worse with danceable cables:

$7,250 Speaker Cables Turn You Into a Dancin' Fool

If you thought Monster Cable was bad with its $80 HDMI cables, check out these Pear Anjou Speaker Cables, ringing up the cash register at an astonishing

Fraudioquest is unfortunately quite successful, along with several other cable charlatans. It's sad but there's a coupla fora/audio groups that don't go for the nonsense, like AH, but seems even there we're in relatively small numbers. Repeat a lie often enough....

It wouldn't take to many insane people at those prices. They're sure not going for volume.

Yep, we all want to know that. No answer though. I guess someone could make a small fortune knowing this.

Well it was kind of rhetorical. But someone could make a fortune if they knew. Too bad there’s way too many answers to my question.

Well, to start, most can't spell f#%k correctly.

If you have a 4K TV you definitely need this cable or your movies will look and sound like a garbage truck!

Lol. Especially if your trying to bypass the Fukkin forum gatekeeper!!!
I suppose I could choose other words. But I was brought up a certain way. With colorful language. I don’t even think about it much. But definitely know when to feel it in. Sometimes my eloquence even surprises me. Nah… Lmao.

That is the Amazon price, which may not reflect reality. I looked it up, it is sold by a vendor, which means they set their own price regardless of what AQ charges.

That said, AQ is insane lol. I still have a number of AQ RCAs but I bought most of them from a site that sold them for %50 or more off, bringing them down to realistic levels. Then I found Bluejeans and never looked back.

Crazy, hey as long as enough suckers review their junk there're suckers who buy them
