A good example of this discussed recently in these pages is Roger Russell's latest speaker which uses an audiophile brand wire despite his well known web page discussing the performance of wire. I think it is fairly safe to assume that this was not used because of any belief in superior sound on the manufacturers part but because he judged the extra cost for the branded wire would increase the attractiveness of his speakers to his customers.
