Guess I need to start a company making banana cables.

It has definitely been making the rounds in the various audio groups I peruse....

An organic banana would be better for listening to organ music of course!

People have often asked me if I smoked after sex and there was certainly none emitted, at least none that I ever saw, but now you're telling me they sometimes make music too?

Wow, didn't think a banana would transfer any signal. Now I will have to experiment for myself. No. I will not replace my cables, they don't expire so fast, not as messy.

Well the long unneeded answer to the question of whether a fresh or aging banana passes voltage more audibly pleasant....

It gets less bright as the banana gets darker.

ps. no banana can reach from my speakers through the walls to the processor or amps.
