Is my Salesman telling the Truth?

I stopped by my local hifi salon yesterday and my sales guy was blabbing how much cardas sucks and taralabs are so much better. Since the topic of cable preference is a very personal/subjective issue, I decided not to touch it with a 3 meter pole. He then goes on to say that network cables such as Transparent and MIT doesn't do a thing for single wire post speakers (non-biwire). I understand that most sales guys are knowledgeable and would never lie to make a sale (yeah right), but can some one comfirm or explain why this is? Thanks in advance.

Your salesman is telling the truth alright - as long as it works for him. I was in sales years ago and management DOES put pressure on to push products that have a better profit margin. Not only in audio but everyplace. This is life and that's a fact. That does NOT mean there are no honest salespeople, it only means that most honest salespeople who work on commission don't take home big fat paychecks every week.
What you want to do (and it takes time) is find a dealer you like and you can deal with for MOST of your gear. It takes time to develop a relationship...lots of time.
