Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

It’s so strange.... I also ordered these very cables a couple of months ago. I thought they were a bargain and very good.
Then....... another AOS member said..... have you tried Blue Jeans Cable ( effectively Belden cable made to Blue Jeans specification.) Just Stunning at the same sort of price point + USA IMPORT DUTY...... which is a bummer.

They don't exactly 'oversell' it on the advert, do they?Originally Posted by Bigman80
Not so much of a bargain (although still sensible enough money), but if anyone's looking for a super-slim, discrete speaker cable, which can be hidden out of the way easily and sounds SUPERB, then I thoroughly recommend this stuff:

I have it in my home-cinema system, which I also use for music duties, and it is really excellent.

Ha ha Ha, I know we didn't get on with the Hollywood stuff but I am impressed with this stuff. I've never liked a cable Van Damme has made but I'll give it a go at some point.

Interesting review concerning the Van Damme cables. I have two sets (both 1 metre long) of similar cables, they are:
Van Damme, marked: Van damme LC-OFC LOUDSPEAKER 268-504-000 2x4.0mm sq. – TOTAL DEFINITION DIRECTIONAL HIFI
This is a ‘figure of eight’ style cable with 4mm OD conductors comprising many strands twisted into several bunches, and the bunches themselves twisted together. The insulation is clear with the cable identity printed onto the centre strip separating the two conductors. The overall width of the cable is 14mm.
http://www.van-damme.com/25.html
Van Damme: marked: Van damme 268-545-000 BLACK SERIES CONCERT GRADE UPOFC CLASSIC PRO LOUDSPEAKER 2x4.0mm TWIN-AXIAL
Two conductors having 4mm OD insulation coloured red and blue, with an overall black sheath 13mm OD.
The closest I can find on the Van Damme web site is this http://www.van-damme.com/23.html, but mine are marked as above and not BLUE SERIES STUDIO GRADE.
Both of these cables are slightly different to those reviewed. Is anyone else using them? Are they any good – what are your thoughts? Have to confess I can’t hear any difference between them, but they are only 1 metre long.
