Shit, if you think that's expensive, VampireWire used to (and perhaps still does) offer pure silver speaker cables that cost $15,000 a pair for only 8 feet per channel.

As far as I'm concerned, it all sounds the same. "Audiophiles" who claim they can hear a difference can kiss my ass.

you are only as good as your weakest link. Don't skimp on cabling. 5% of your total HT costs should be devoted towards cabling.
