Andrew Everard:
In which case, in my current system the majority of the cables are CAT5 patch cables from a variety of computer suppliers. I tend to buy them as I need them. Bought one this afternoon, in fact, from my local Maplin. It was £6.99. I could probably have bought it much cheaper online, but i needed it then, as my wife had stolen my spare cable for a computer hook-up having just bought a new MIDI piano.

But I fail to see what that has to do with my earlier efforts to head off all the cliche-ridden arguments usually prevalent in discussions of this kind.

What colour?

What do you use between your amp and speakers?

What kind of speaker cable? Which brand?

Two core. And not one where the VP of Marketing is still being quoted as a reviewer - stuff like that gives reviewers a bad name.

So, Joel, the address of your new house, how much you paid for it, how much you borrowed, what interest rate you got, which bank account the payments come out of....

Would love to follow this but got 4am start.

Less than £8 per metre?

Of course one simple answer would have avoided The Spanish Inquisition.
 
Andrew Everard:

Yes, it cost me less than £8/m.

Would it cost a member of the general public less than £8 per metre?
 
JoelSim:Of course one simple answer would have avoided The Spanish Inquisition.

OK then: none of your business. Moving on...

Placebo, foo, audiophool, Boston Audio Society, The Amazing Randi, religion, Pear Audio, Michael Fremer, wine tasting, homeopathy, ABX, Monster Cable, coathangers.

There, saved everyone a lot of time and effort...

Brilliant idea, I'll replace all my fuses with coathanger wire, had not thought of that! Never blown a fuse anyway, so let's get rid of these bottlenecks. Don't you agree that we should send Krell and the likes an email, no let's make it a petition, to demand that they use proper components in the future?
 
JoelSim:Blimey, Naim, PMC, subwoofer etc etc. None of those answers were like pulling teeth.

I have no idea what you're trying to prove here, but we are now way off topic regarding 'hi-fi' fuses...

I think it's fairly obvious. Just interested to know what cabling you use on your system.

Do you use an aftermarket mains lead and/or conditioner?
 
MUSICRAFT:Hi drummerman
I hope nobody blows a fuse in this thread!

The very definition of spammage...
 
Joel, if you're trying to find out if Mr E believes in expensive cables and all the conditioning caper I think you are wasting your time!

BTW the new house is looking good.

Damn those London house prices.

You can get something up here twice the size for a brown one.
