 Does anyone know anything about this Living Large Audio...the listed contact for Siltech Cables in the USA?

The Siltech web site is a complete joke, and I don't know where to get up to date product info.

 They took distribution when Siltech America lost it.

 Strange. No website, no email. Just a phone number.

 I had a very bad/weird/exasperating experience with Siltech and one of their "dealers" a couple years ago. Ordered a cable from one of their authorized dealers. He charged my CC immediately. After a month I disputed the charge and after about 6-7 weeks I got the cable which looked like it had been made in somone's garage. Totally unacceptable for a $1000 cable. Then the dick head dealer calls me to tell me how uncool I am for disputing the charge and that he is going to sic the law on me. I fedexed the crappy cable back to him and sent a letter to him, the BBB in his city and to Siltech and told them to stick it where the sun don't shine. The dealer went out of business very shortly thereafter, absconding with several AA inmates monies. Left a very bad taste in my mouth for Siltech and so called authorized store front dealers in other states, too far away to drive and confront them face to face. The experience totally changed the way I do audio business, forever.

 I have heard such stories.

And even worse.

Counterfeits, bad service, total lack of product information.

I guess you had the last word.

 Siltech are unique sounding cables, but you are right. Acoustic Zen is at the top of my list.
