It reminded me of the “oxygen-free” RCA cables gathering dust in the loft I bought about 10 years ago … for £40! Y’know, I was convinced I could tell the difference between those and my cheapo’s.

It was only the above experience that prevented me from instantly replacing the “bell-wire” that came with my home theatre system at Christmas. It sounds really good anyway … for godsake, just leave it :)

I often think people like these should be taken to a substation I used to know, and told to put their hands on two contacts. That would teach them a thing or two about “polarisation of electricity”. My Arse.
