RE: ARE $13,200 INTERCONNECTS WORTH THE PRICE??

All legitimate questions for sure, but what matters first and foremost to me is the results. I am not biased toward gear no matter how much or how little it costs. I have had great inexpensive systems and cost no object setups. I really dig the naturalness of my current system....almost no electromechanical residue apparent. What I find most offensive is the glut of truly marginal differences between "just wire" cables. My ears have heard a decent portion of the various metals, treatments and geometries offered in the cable maelstrom and although they all sound slightly different, none of them delivered what I wanted from my system(s). I found the various brands to be more metallurgical voodoo than solutions to great sound. Inevitably I pay for what sounds best and for me that is Transparent and MIT products. A free market delivers the best array of products at prices for every level of consumer. Options are great and I do not mind paying for that privilege. So in the end, I understand your perspective completely....I just submit that I like being able to pay for what I believe to be the best!
