In Reply to: A power cord "as-filter"... posted by Duster on February 12, 2006 at 18:27:59:
Let me ask you this.Would you buy a power cord from somebody who is building this in a garage or would you buy one from a manufacture that provides a warranty?
Follow Ups:
I'm sorry for opening up my mouth about a subject that I really no nothing about.My apologies to Chris as I'm sure he is on honest and caring man.I'm basing my assumptions on schooling myself in the field of electronics.I've only been at this for a month or so and learning as I go along.Next time I wright something one this forum I'll make sure I know what I'm talking about and base it on fact.
I accept your apology, Doug.
Why the lowbrow shot about building in a garage?With all due respect, Doug, your e-mails indicated buyer's remorse before the cable even hit your door. You stated that you wanted to return the cable the same day you received it because you thought it was too stiff. Then you e-mailed me and said you had worked things out and were going to put on your computer for a couple weeks to expedite burn-in. You owned the cable a grand total of ONE more day before returning. This was despite my recommendation (and numerous user comments) that it needed proper time to "burn-in", partly a by-product of the Teflon dielectric and insulation used.
Your 13+ e-mails to me throughout this process were responded to quickly and professionally, and in one of your e-mails you even wrote "It's such a pleasure to deal with an honest and courteous person like yourself. It's down right frustrating to deal with other people on web sites who would tell you anything in order to sell their products. I myself do extensive research before I buy anything. It's people like yourself that make the world a better place.
When you indicated you wanted to return it, there was no hassle, and the funds were credited immediately after I received the cable. You had 60 days to evaluate it yet declined to do so.
So other than the fact that you were unwilling to follow instructions on the operation of this product, where's the beef?
For the record, I don't build cables in my garage or kitchen table, but if I did, so what? If you want to buy mass-produced cables made in large factories, by companies with huge ad budgets, that's your perogative. Quite frankly, I'm pleased to hear you will do business with them.
...I'm glad you outlined the transaction. However, based on the poster's arrogantly and ignorantly assuming attitude towards power cords, and his silly AudioQuest King Cobra review; your reply will likely fall on deaf ears. I don't expect an apologetic response...
I truly love hand-built cottage industry products with a "money back if not delighted" guaranty. If Chris VH builds his cables in a garage, I would rather hang out there than in a factory (call me Rock 'n Roll). A written warranty from VH Audio? Chris VH's reputation needs no such time-based promise (do an AA archive search).
i guess chris is more than willing to repair/reterminate his cables (maybe for a small fee) as long as they are not chopped into 2 halves by a hunting blade...
