    Simple, it obviously bothers you and the trolls FAR MORE than it bothers me. I haven't mentioned it, merely answering the trolls who ask irrelevant questions to score points and nothing else. I am happy to sit back and wait for other people to post their opinions who actually have the cable in question

    Nobody is pulling my strings.

    If we are talking about shills here Jerry, why is it that YOU can endlessly wax lyrical about your "fave cable" on forums and Hi-fi Pig to your heart's content unchallenged, yet when I do an honest appraisal of a cable that really has impressed me with the way it sounds, rather than it just being yet another bit of off the reel wire with plugs on, you get all sniffy and make snide remarks about "over enthusiastic beta testers" hyping a product when you haven't even heard it to comment about it's performance. This is from the man that not so long ago "trusted my hearing explicitly". Bit of a turn around isn't it?

    Your behaviour in being so defensive about your own "fave cable" which don't forget I have actually heard, being so vitriolic and dismissive about my appraisal of a certain cable and taking every opportunity to snipe at me just lately, makes me begin to wonder old bean if your relationship to a certain dealer is a bit more than just a warm handshake.

    Frank please refrain from these types of attacks unless you have proof.

    I feel at times like I have the Watchtower brigade on my doorstep. Most of the time I can be my usual self and smile at them and politely say "no thanks" and close the door. But just occasionally the devil takes over and I just cannot resist showing that I know as much or more about the bible than they do and argue the toss. Its usually the language used that presses the buttons there too.
