Such madness, the substituiton of expensive labor for cheap machine fabrication has been a mainstay of the high-end audio industry for years. I don't doubt that the silver in the cable and the teflon in the dialectric insulation results in a "better sounding " cable. It does. But $1000 for a 6 ft length of cable, half the price of a high quality pre-amplifier with multiple active devices, top-flight design, and similarly expensive parts? If SCSI cards alway worked as advertised and specified, we wouldn't be subject to such FUD and high prices. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- harry travis <htravis@ibm.net> DemostiX -----------------------------------------------------------
