The brand, the price, the materials, the price, the color, the bulk,
weight and feel of the jacket and the terminators, the price, the air of
exclusivity and high performance, the price, totally make it worth the
price. I get all that. I just have one mundane, down-to-earth question:
is this CAT5 or CAT6? Anyone?
A tin-bearing copper alloy is used for the cable's shield while the
insulation is made of a fluoropolymer material with superior heat
resistance, weather resistance, and anti-aging properties.
After
installing my stereo system in my oven, I firstly tested the heat
resistance properties of the fluoropolymer insulation.... Lemme tell
you, my oven never sounded so good.
Later, I put my entire 10k
kit in the garden.... Over winter.....to test the weather resistance,
and while I completely ruined thousands and thousand of pounds worth of
equipment, the cable continued to work (I assumed).
Finally,
after borrowing a heap of money from the bank to re-buy my rusted stereo
equipment I stole a stability oven from work, set the humidity bang up
to 90% and the temp to 100 Celsius I artificially aged the cable to ONE
MILLION YEARS OLD.... It still functioned like a cable should.
And whats more.... It doesn't break and even tells you which direction the electrons are travelling in:
The
connector features a rounded plug lever to prevent bending or breaking
and direction marks to indicate correct direction for connecting cable.
Its
like Denon have tapped into the very fabric of the universe and have
packaged it into what ostensibly appears to just be a grossly over
priced piece of copper.
In summary.... You've got to be some kind of mug NOT to own this horrendously overpriced piece of marketing genius.
Isn't it?
