Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable?
Uh, what would you like them to measure? In your heart of hearts.

Moby Grape rules! But what’s up with prices, even for CDs? Gad zooks!!

Electric Ladyland CD. The one with the little Experience Hendrix logo, issued by the Hendrix family and remastered by Eddie Kramer. Don’t ever go against the family. Kra-mer! 
Curious How These Nordost Speaker Cables Do What They Do
Eggs Ackly! Not only that, for typical and ubiquitous very high purity conductors the amount of the impurities is inconsequential. One millionth. Besides, if Nordost’s theory of directionality were true then fuses would exhibit the same phenomenon... 
Curious How These Nordost Speaker Cables Do What They Do
Well, Nordost is certainly all wet on their explanation of cable directionality. Maybe Nordost should pay closer attention to how Audioquest controls wire directionality.“Are Nordost cables directional?Yes, Nordost cables are directional. This is ...

Are you stupid or something? 
What is the best thing to buy/or do to clean connections on IC's and SC " ??
All electrical connections and contacts should be cleaned, including wall outlets. Not only audio wall outlets but wall outlets for appliances, TV, floor lamps, microwave, etc.

My face is red. I had no idea AES gave a crap about high end cables or wire or fuse directionality. By the way there’s a perfectly good reason why fuses are directional in DC circuits and AC circuits. See if anyone can guess what it is. Without bl...

Copy cat alert. 😸 I don’t agree you can do it yourself. I have secrets. Besides, copper tape is not constrained layer damping, especially the way I use it.Marigo VTS Dots on the other hand 🖐 are constrained layer dampers. I have Flying Saucers for...

Split camp on cables? I’m sure you must be mistaken, sir. Everyone has always agreed, ever since Polk and Fulton came out with those really cool cables, what was it, 40 years ago?

Big shout out for Marigo VTS dots, which come in a wide range of sizes (1/8” diameter to 1 1/2” diameter) and colors depending on application - headphone frame, speaker cabinets, speaker diaphragm, CD tray, printed circuit board, wall outlet plate... 
Buying tubes...do they vary???
I agree with the poster who stated that NOS really means the tubes test well or test “like new.” The designation NOS is not (rpt not) supposed to mean brand new nor does anyone who buys NOS tubes expect brand new tubes. I would obtain NOS military...

Whoa! What?! Biker bar? Let’s keep this civil. 🏍 🕺 
Balanced cables
Uh, oh! It’s the heat! Everybody scatter! 😬

Have I got a flash for you, flashbazbo. High current is not (rpt not) going to the speakers. Problem solved. 🤠
