How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits

For sure...

 And most  Chinese as most American engineers will laugh at me using shungite and quartz...

It only prove that engineers had limits...

Being nothing i had no limits...😊

Some chinese are crook and ignorant...

Some others are not...

How many engineers are created each years in China ?

Perhaps a lot more than in most parts of the world for obvious reasons and yes most of engineers including Chinese strongly believe that the only difference between any wire including fakes and Nordost is just a brand name for which you can pay upto $30k more.

it is hard to imagine buying a $40,000 pair of cables for $100 and thinking it’s the real thing........................................yes, but do they sound $39,900 TIMES better.

Stupidity is what it is. There are miniscule to non-existent gains in cables above a certain price point. There are much bigger gains by spending in other areas. I have some of the more expensive cables from the likes of Ansuz, Audioquest, etc, mostly given to me by a couple of friends at some point. I can at least appreciate the technical ideas there with some brands, i.e., some of the more innovative ways of noise rejection by the likes of Ansuz, etc.

Nordost is just a silly non-cranial brand, ugh ( a whole lotta nothing there, but fluff)...Makes sense to me that the Chinese are selling it for 60 bucks.

The government of China does not recognize international patent laws and some people take advantage of this.

They way "Copyrights" work is China - we have the rights to copy 😄

I am flabbergasted by the way the brain work...

Others had all the faults , ourselves none ...

I bet many had never read a book ... 😊

For sure it is true the CCP dont recognise any patent laws...😁

But what else is also true ?

To stay in the cables thread i must say that i just damped my chinese preamplifier tubes with silicone rings...(1 dollars for 10)😎

Way better imaging and details ...Like buying a way costlier cable upgrade... You know what i means ? 😁

I never encountered this improvement change with an European tube amplifier which i bought for a way higher cost than my chinese preamplifier  ( 6 times higher cost)... Anyway it was so bad headphone amplifier , a well reviewed one by the way , i sold it with 40 tubes few years ago for a low price 😁... I vouch to never bought tubes again ... 😊 I was wrong ...

Then i will not bash low cost Chinese product. Some are more than just good for the price ...Some are trash... It is the same thing in any country by the way some gear are bad and some are good ...

@mahgister ,

No one bashed any Chinese products. The discussion was how they effectively copy products and sell them blatantly as the same brand. If they were selling as a duplicate brand name, example Sharp Vs Shrap, then that would be different. Don’t jump into conclusions just because have so much time on hand.
