Folks, you're getting a little bit out of your element here. *I use the upper
strata Monster interconnects in my system. *These things are big bucks, well
into the four figures, and most of you in this group won't have any idea they
even exist. *(Look up Monster Sigma Retro.) *They're the product of choice in
my particular system, having proven themselves against a bunch of other
products. *Of course, if you don't think cables sound different, then there's
no point discussing the issue.

I guess (having never seen a Festool in the flesh) that there's quite a bit of
similarity here. *Have to say I enjoyed Leon's justification for the Festool,
although I'll never be good enough to justify one of their tools.

I could set up an accurate AB comparison test, properly attenuated to
eliminate any soundpressure differences and I will be very surprised
if you'd be able to tell the difference between your rip-off wires and
a proper ordinary conductor. But then again, you qualified your
position about us being out of our element when you don't have a clue
who you're talking to.
If you think you can out-spend common sense, then go for it....and no,
Festool does NOT operate on those Monster principles. Their tools MUST
perform for them to maintain their reputation, they will not be able
to 'fool' expert craftsmen unlike Monster being able to pull money out
of your ignorant pocket. Monster= there's sucker born every minute.
