With ridiculous pricing you mean ridiculously low? For $600 it gives better sound than $3000 Nordost Valhalla and Virtual Dynamics Judge ($50,000). The prices of other manufacturers are ridicuously high.I would not worry too much about that scenario. There is a lot of information on this site regarding this subject, and cables in general. I spent probably a year reading and digesting power cable threads before I even thought of trying one.
If anybody reads this, or another KooKooNut Audio thread, and then buys one, then the phrase "Stupid is as stupid does" applies.
On the other hand, the cables might work to some degree. It is the ridiculous pricing, absurd claims, and crazy supporters that distinguish these homemade cables. That is what separates these cables from Pepster cables, or other DIY cables. -
Yes, and the newcomers will become angry at him in the future, because they missed many years of eargasms because of him. Maybe in 10 years things will be different, and the skeptics will feel embarrassed of everything they have said. It already happened in bodybuilding, I proved to the skeptics that my exercise worked, nobody believed it, but then I posted video proof, 56 kg increase in 7 months, now they are all silent, they knew they made big fools of themselves.That was a good one. That's EXACTLY what ZLTFUL does, brainwash newcomers to think hyper cables make no difference and therefore is a waste of money. Since he can't get real improvement out of his music he becomes angry towards people like us. This is most extremely true. ZLTFUL = gang member That's why I showed him two of your audiophile vs skeptic videos to him saying he really needs it. I am having joygasm reading this and typing here.
Ditto that. Best answer. ++ rep.
Cheezy
The same thing will happen with audio skeptics. All forums will become empty because they feel too embarrassed to post anymore.
I have made a few blind tests, I can make better ones on video that will prove the truth once and for all, but I don't need to prove the obvious. Skeptics also like to ignore the evidence, they run away from the truth, that's why they have limited understanding. -
Aint this beautiful? It doesn't look like a $600 cable, more like $30k. And performs like a $60k, but for $600. It's ridiculously underpriced. This is just wrong.....

masking tape... lol ha ha.nooshinjohn wrote: »Is that masking tape on the ends of that thing? You are a comedian. That's a Whitewood airy tree fiber on both ends of the plugs. They are to keep the conductors from coming lose, prevent oxidation, and keep the sound uncolored for natural sound with realism. Pat you on the back.

It's tree fiber, similar to wood but without the colorations wood gives. Here is a close-up. You see the texture is more consistent than with wood.I do believe that is Playdough.
-
Here is standard wood. You see the grain makes it all messy. It gives colorations to the sound. But if you take the wood material, reconstruct it, you can make uncolored sound.

F1nut is messaging me and saying that he knows my real name. I told him he was wrong. But he still thinks he is right.
It's the same thing with the cables. I have listened to the cables, he never did, and he thinks he knows better. Very bad logic. This is an embarrassing day for the skeptics.F1nut wrote:Got ya!AudioTruth wrote:No, that's not my name.F1nut wrote:I've got all your info, yeah it is. -

Well I thought I still had a link to your forum Patrick, but I guess they TOTALLY disposed of all the archives and everything.:redface:
Oooops!
Here it is just scroll down, glad to do my part to help you out Patrick.
I thought your forum was "Top Shelf"!
I am surprised other people (companies) even make power cables any more.

Skeptics think they know me better than I know myself, very strange. Based on this information, it's easy to know that they are wrong about cables too. 100% of those who own the cable, are getting eargasms. The skeptics who never owned the cable, are saying that the cable doesn't give eargasms. Do you see what is wrong here?

Well to be honest, yes I do.
I tried to make a knife out of rope one time, I couldn't get it to cut anything, so I included all the BS in the world that I could come up with to try to sell it, and I still could not sell that damn thing as a knife.
Nobody believed it!
That said, if I made even a HALF WAY DECENT knife, and eliminated all the BS, I could sell them.
Left and right!
Imagine that!:eek:Testing

I would like to mention also Patrick.........using solid core conductors with a mechanical IEC or Male AC plug IS NOT A VERY GOOD IDEA!
Not to mention, UNSAFE.
They ARE/WERE designed for stranded wire (unless you solder spades).
Unlike receptacles, they are moved around ALOT more, and removed/replaced at times, often many times, not to mention, they are not mounted to a stationary box, mounted to a stud, like a receptacle is.Testing

Furutech plugs were designed for solid core conductors.I would like to mention also Patrick.........using solid core conductors with a mechanical IEC or Male AC plug IS NOT A VERY GOOD IDEA!

Unlike receptacles, they are moved around ALOT more, and taken in and out at times, not to mention, they are not mounted to a stationary box, mounted to a stud.
Furutech has these crimp sleeves (for AC plugs) that collects multi strand wiring, and makes it appear like solid core to the plug:
Of course this reduces audio quality, so it's best to use solid core in the first place.
Nordost and Virtual Dynamics have always used solid core in their power cables, because it gives the best sound.
There is no safety concern if the cable is really thick. I need to use a bolt cutter to cut the cable. -

You can do the same with the rope, you remove only one strand and cut through butter. If you want a sharper knife, you use rope made of metal. -

It can be done "cold welded" but someone in Sweden with 9 rabbits living in their house, my suggestion is to drop the solid core with a mechanical connection.

It's not strange. They try to justify their lack of eargasm by believing that I'm wrong. Deep inside they are crying, not laughing.Patrick....do you not find it rather strange that no matter what audio forums you post your BS on. People make fun of your ignorant ramblings all over? -
If you mean the conductors coming loose from the plug, that is physically impossible with my tree fiber design. It took an hour of sawing through the tree fiber to get to the conductors. With a bolt cutter it took half as long.It can be done "cold welded" but someone in Sweden with 9 rabbits living in their house, my suggestion is to drop the solid core with a mechanical connection.

Yes, I am getting total satisfaction out of your cables. Serious improvement in SQ. It's like drug. I'm so addicted to the sound I can't leave my house even for an hour. I stay at all times except for work.AudioTruth wrote: »Skeptics think they know me better than I know myself, very strange.

Skeptics are like the communist. It's not only evil but they are the devils. The government and FDA are like that too sadly.

Oh yeah I understand. He is such the great audio designer/inventor that he is scared to give him name. Yeah that sounds like an honest person with nothing to hide! :rolleyes:
