|  pair of 12foot cables $65 | franko Sep 24, 2003 12:22 PM | | $2.5 per foot
Compared to some of the ridiculous built cables on the market...very cheap. But to me is still too much for speaker wire.
But you could make your own for about $0.50 / foot with good cable or use ulta pure copper cable for $1.00 / foot.
Like I said before...it is crazy what has happend to the audio wire industry. 15 years ago I bought a pair of 12foot cables for $20 and I thought that was a kings randsom. |

|  Can, but do NOT want to | franko Sep 25, 2003 3:12 PM | | I can spend that much but do not want to.
as a matter of fact the most expensive cable I have ... is a 3 foot fiber cable that I bought like 5 years ago from Monster for $40.
It is outrageous now...but at that time there were no other fiber cables in the store and lower price alternatives were not available.
Now I can buy no name fiber links for $4 at a local electronics store. |

I didn't think you want to just a bit of info on the crazy market. Some must buy it though.

That way one cannot go crazy over the designer label :) |
|  Neat name for cables | Norm Strong Sep 26, 2003 9:54 PM | | You have to accept as axiomatic that these cables are better than zipcord. |
