In Reply to: RE: Why are Siltech cables sooooo expensive? posted by Jagdeep on June 21, 2010 at 06:17:53
Cables prices in the high end have no bearing on reality or normal cost accounting models. Siltech has their fans. I am not one of them. After waiting 2 months for one of their $1000 cables. I got something that looked like it was put together and terminated in somebody's basement and it made my ears bleed. It went back to the dealer. There used to be some mumbo jumbo out there about how they got started and silver impurities in copper or vice versa. Whatever. You could probably audition some from the Cable Company if you really wanted to or some other on line etailer with the brand. I have done both of those things many times in the past and it saved me tons of money.

Thanks guys.
I've bought stuff from CC before.
I'm in far far away land (Singapore) and loaners are a nono.
Looks like I'll have to pass on trying Siltech.
Cheers

over the years and I personally do not think you are missing anything. But, I know how it is when you have an itch to do, buy or try something and you can't for whatever reason. I usually head off to a pub instead.

I second the Cable Co. I bought Monster Sigma 2000, and Sigma Retro Gold at half price.
