I wrote "PERHAPS you deserve abuse" and I meant it in a sort of jocular way to goad you into producing your own review. Sorry you took offense. Wow, I guess you really paid attention to that previous thread. I was not trying to abuse Winston, and it's true that I don't think he deserved it. I found some others' posts to be unnecessarily cruel and crude, but that's an issue I'd rather not pursue.
Yes, of course a better device might avoid distortion caused by a lesser device it replaces, but no device can REMOVE distortion. No magic crystals, no purified copper wires, no number of kegs (whatever those are), can improve a signal. That seemed to be what Winston was claiming, and the snake oil approach is what set me off. I did not dispute his overall favorable impression of the cords, but only the exaggerated properties he assigned to them. It would be quite foolish, as many others have needlessly pointed out here and elsewhere, to argue against a product one has not personally auditioned.
Looking forward to your review, so long as it doesn't state that these cords make awful recordings sound wonderful. Even mad scientists cannot find a way to do that, especially with just a power cord. I won't argue that it can't make a system sound better, but no one should claim that it can fix something that's already broken.
Peace,
