MIT Cables new "Articulation Control Console" $45.000 for speaker cables?

Peanuts, MIT is coming out with the 20 Million dollar set, designed for the lad who needs to truly impress his friends. 

That's outrageous !!

Everyone knows they are only worth $44,995.

I've heard them and I promise you they are not worth what they are asking.

I've always believed this hobby is about system matching, synergy and having a good pair of ears.

I like expensive gear but there's only so much I'm willing to pay.

Everyone likes to control some articulation!

Hey, what's $50,000 for speaker cables on a $500,000,000 yacht.... Peanuts :)

Some jerk will buy them and say they are great because he paid big bucks!!

Oligarchs need the best you can buy for them.
You just don't know it.
Yet.

As much as I like cables, I don't know if I can spend $45 large on cables.  And I have nice ones too. 

Demo

I thought it was $80,000

maybe they are selling you a blem?
