materials in their construction and are quite well made. I'd rather not
be forced to sell the damned things, but the client has been a loyal one
for more than 20 years, so I feel the need to assist him in the sale of
the things. The prices are far, far below RRP, so, in that sense, they
are good value. Sound-wise, they are crap value.
FWIW: I supplied the client a set of RG213/U speaker cables (cost
$3.00/Metre), which were audibly indistinguishable from the silly cables
he wants me to sell. I gave the cables to him for free.

**Oh yeah, I also have a Class D amplifier on my site. Unlike the cables
advertised, it makes a huge difference to the sound of a system. In a
bad way. It uses the ICEPower circuitry patented by B&O. It is worse
than any amplifier I've heard in a long time. Apart from those silly SET
amps, of course. In that sense, the Class D amp is far worse value for
money than the cables.

Consignment or not, you are feeding this audiophoolery nonsense with

You don't mention that either.

IMO, is a bargain.
