Of course, they went in and deleted 90% of the posts (including anything interesting, relevant or marginally truthful) before unlocking it again.  They really shouldn't have even bothered with the cleanup and unlock, TBH, seeing as the review itself has about as much veracity as something you'd read on 6moons.

Cable reviews have always seemed a little...ridiculous to me. 

 

I have no problems with Austin though. I get where Steve was suspect, and I feel that review is poor...but we share some musical taste and he does get to try a ton of gear.

 

I take any audio review with a grain of salt most of the time anyway.

I'm told the silk in question is sourced from a nest of radioactive giant spiders (rumored to be from Fukushima Daiichi) currently residing in his basement.  He feeds the spiders the children he abducts after he's done with them for himself, probably in order to get rid of the evidence, and in return they give him silk.  Also, If you get your cable on special order, Steve will rub the silk all over his naked sweaty body before putting it over the cable.  Pictures can be e-mailed upon request.

Sexy indeed!

I wonder if the kids are free range, or least the spiders. I'm assuming so - Steve's a pretty caring guy.

Steve's just another cable guy, with a marketing past--he's at least on par with the best of 'em. Wrap some Cu in sustainable silk or cotton negligé, a cigarette and a drink afterwards... wink_face.gif

I have tried several after market cables. Recently I purchased a Q cable for my he400's. It's the best cable that I've ever used-hands down. I did enjoy the Blue Dragon, but it was just to heavy and unmanageable. 

 

The Q cable has the soft, yarn like quality that I was looking for. The cup connectors are marked visible with large red and white indicated for L and R, so that I never have to worry about putting on the hp's backwards. It's a small but appreciated touch.

 

Great cable!!
