My cat tore up my Virtual Dynamics Power 3...

[slwiser]

I am still enjoying my Virtual Dynamics cables and will keep on using them. Maybe even get some more later at the right time and price.

Dr. Audio:

I read your responses with interest. First, why not obtain a UL certification? As you state, most of the aftermarket power cord industry does not carry the rating. Why not Virtual Dynamics? The cost would be fully deductible, so you could, possibly, keep even more of your profits.

Further, UL is an internationally recognized testing lab. Having their certification would be an absolute advantage over your competition. If you had UL certification, you would be able to advertise it to your advantage and, hopefully increase sales and increase market share. Isn't that what you want for your business? Personally, I've sought certifications and degrees to put myself at an advantage over other people in my field. In my business, I do what I can to put myself at an advantage over the competition. I cannot understand why you would not want to give Virtual Dynamics an absolute, internationally recognized, advantage over considerable competition in aftermarket cables.

As for your profit after overhead... well, that's a slippery figure. You can build all sorts of cost into overhead, such as your own salary. You could even put your salary high enough so that the company makes only a slight profit. Or you could roll your car, housing, meals, various expenses, and so on, into the company. Wise moves for tax reasons, but not definitive proof that you're putting X amount of dollars into a product. How are we to know you're not expensing every meal and your morning coffee into the product? Like I said, the profit is a slippery thing... if you ever notice, no Hollywood movie ever makes money. Yet they keep making them.

Please tell us about your test equipment, testing facility, and methods used for testing. Please do not reveal proprietary information. I can't reveal information about my clients, but I can tell you that I do work for them with Microsoft Word and a Pentium 4. So, please tell us the makes, models and other associated equipment used for testing your cables. Photos would be great. If you use an outside lab, please tell us the name of the lab, where it is located and a contact who can confirm that testing was performed.

draudio, I understand the point that you made earlier about how we can all learn from our mistakes. However, we can only learn from our mistakes if we recognize that they are mistakes. Mr. Carter has apparently not yet had that realization. With every single post he makes, he causes irreparable harm to reputation of your company.

x2. Who cares about Matt Carter?

Maybe you can introduce us your research and developemend departement. Sure you have some leading authorities under contract to achieve the amazing results that allow you to offer such a finely stepped product line, based on electrical phenomenons that are up to now unknown to major audio equipement developers and conventionally trained EE's.

Until you do, i'll construct the hypothesis that you maybe don't have a r&d. Maybe you're just randomly cobbling together multiple ineffective ingredients.
But that's just an assumption. I might be wrong.

Properly handled, this thread could be less than half the size it is now and would probably already be on the second page.

It's funny that in multiple posts the company owner has yet to actually provide any real information. Many of us are very curious as to how these cables defy the laws of physics.

Its all about garden hose, hot glue and magical wishes, thats how they defy physics.

Actually Draudio has been very candid about all his claim.

So, what's so damn neat? :-) I was hoping you would realize that this cable has nothing extraordinary to it with exception of those little tiny beads that are all over your house by now!

Basically, the only thing that VD is different is the sandblasting beads. All the scientific stuff is just made up for fun.

At least, the owner of VD is honest.
