This hobby is dying because there is no regulation in this industry ...

In the US, the industry is subject to all sorts of regulation. A manufacturer of an unsafe product can be ordered to conduct a recall, just as in any other industry.

It's rare to encounter such a meaningful topic. While sound quality is a deeply personal matter, every audiophile still prioritizes musicality. Ultimately, audio equipment is merely a playback tool, and its primary purpose should be to satisfy the user's musical needs.

For those of you looking to enhance the musicality of your current audio system, I invite you to try our WRT cables. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. If your audio system is worth over $30,000, you might also take this opportunity to further understand the crucial role cables play in the musicality of your audio.
