Ah, the weekly Russ Andrews thread.

Just in case anyone has a sweepstake running on the first mention of 'ASA ruling' then i've now got that out of the way. (That was for mains cables anyway.)

Double blind testing

Snake oil

Greek audiophile club video

Emperor's clothes (or lack of)

I think that covers the bases.

chebby:Ooh, ooh, the Denon £4500 'network' cable (that isn't).

Is that the one that open a portal to another world according to the Amazon review?

[Edited due to incorrect price in original]

It's only $500 (and it is btw, even the twisted pairs occupy the same pin positions in the RJ-45 connectors).

dave_k:You'd think, at that price, they would have a nice round number eg £16,200. Do they really care about that 72p?

I thought the same thing. Maybe it was a round number and the VAT increase made it what it is now.
