How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits


I just stumbled upon this website and they have branded products such as Nordost and Audioquest at about 10% of the normal retail.  How is this even possible and if they are indeed fakes, how come companies like Nordost do not sue them? Truly puzzling.   https://www.aliexpress.us/w/wholesale-nordost.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.search.0

@roxy54 Counterfeit Chinese Cables.  Gone..... but not forgotten.  I'm thinking we should start another thread by the same name, but this time the subject will be "are the people making the cables actually Chinese, or Counterfeit Chinese"  Should be good for 20 pages!  🤣

Exactly right ...

This is why we must buy nothing which is not  a chinese product under a chinese brand name especially in audio  ...

I bought at a ridiculously low price a headphone amp +tube preamplifier  Fosi and Douk... Incredible ratio S.Q. price ... I used it for movie from my computer with my speakers or Akg K240 headphone ...

I will never bought a western product sold there  with a western name... 😊

Everything that’s brand name sold on aliexpress is chinese fake. That’s everything - not just cables.

@bigtwin 

Good idea. There actually were some good recommendations on the thread for non counterfeit Chinese cable brands that are great for those like myself who aren't wealthy. It also gave a few self- righteous folks the opportunity to feel moreso.

That's what they really should be sold for instead of being that expensive.

 

@czarivey I agree and I would love to be able to own the real deal for $50 instead of $40,000 which I’m never gonna spend on a cable. But it isn’t the world we live in.

And by the way I still consider my Heimdall 2, Frey 2 and Tyr 2 cables (real ones) a bargain compared to a civet pooped coffee that sells for $600 per pound. Which is one other thing I ain’t gonna be buying. It’s all relative.
I wonder if aliexpress sells the fake version of the Kopi Luwak. I don’t even want to know who ate and 💩 those coffee beens out.
