    Everybody can have an opinion, well founded or not, but they are entitled to express it. What you don't have is the right to call someone a derogatory name.

    ?? Ken that goes on all the time around here. Enough that I thought the rules were merely suggestions. That or it is selectively enforced.

    I know I've reported such before to see zero action taken.

    Yes, waiting for the end result is important. This takes time.

    According to Patrick, this EMS International Express shipping is about as fast as FedEx Priority... This means it will beat Registered Mail shipping method he used last time which took 6 business days. I am guessing 4- 5 days? it shipped out today, so I should get sometime Thursday?


    The sooner the better. The USPS standard shipping was a nightmare for me.

    I get that. But look back at every post up until his. Was anyone exhibiting such cult-like behavior? Were any of us claiming that Emo was the end-all be-all and that you're stupid to buy something different? Nope. Now look at how the thread changed after his post. 'Nuff said.

    The moderation bias is clearly in effect here. I even remember a Cfrizz post getting mod deleted because she brought up the fact that the rules were getting broken again and again by the same people and nothing getting done. So they shoot the messenger.

    All this talk of a $50k power cord for a powered computer speaker is making me hungry. So, I ordered a $3k Shunyata Ztron Anaconda for the two channel Triton power conditioner, and will move the $2k Ztron Python to my new Hydra power conditioner for the HT. Yummy.

    Ha. Sadly, you probably sat there for a spell, satisfied with such an impotent rebuttal, and then actually felt confident enough to post that. You even used an emoticon, the quintessential replacement for genuine thought. And of course this is why our country is in such a dire predicament. We're talentless on the whole of it and suffer the stench of mediocrity ... and we're proud of it!

    If only we had better strips of power wire, and proximity stones, our stereos would sound good enough to help us all get along. Hopefully coconut audio continues to do the fine work they're doing and we'll make some strides in that respect.

    You might want to be careful with that statement because it seems very apparent that is what the OP is doing, especially after viewing the "factory tour".

    Nobody in this thread is saying anything of any value at all........and for members to get into, lets say....little spouts, within a thread that's nothing more than a joke? C'mon man, this one is worth the time to let go.

    Look at the evidence; this guy has been called out several times in this thread with no retaliation, which on a side note, proves he IS of no relation to ravioli. The OP just continues to drive this thing into the ground as if he had a faithful audience, and he does, just not the one you're suggesting.

    Fantastic cable. Its sound is superb. I can hear the inner detail and micro dynamics, without any of the harsh or forward nature that lesser cables tend towards. An open window into the performance, without any of the glare that causes one to draw the shades. Stunning, and a steal at only 12k per cable. Shrewd to grab them now before the price, rightly, soars. Congrats.
