Truly amazed

I’ve had both the quad shielded and the twin shielded to bits Mark.
What the f**k had AnthonyTD got to do with it?

[Reid Malenfant]

He's had some to bits as well as far as i know & found differences to what you are describing - simples

Calm down dear

[Jac Hawk]

Anyway if there's a difference i will never hear it cos it doesn't look like these mystical white coaxial cables are available any longer, on a lighter not there is a guy on ebay trying to auction off a load of the 2.4m grey variant, his problem is that he has set delivery at £6.99 so no one is bidding, which is my good fortune cos he lives just down the road, so lets see if i can get a few more sets but this time at only 99p

[Welder]

No mate, it’s not “simples”.
I am cool, but then again, I know what I’m talking about.
The implication from your earlier post is I’m some halwfit that cant read and don’t know shit and AnothonyTD is the only one to be trusted on this subject.

If you want to call me a twat, that’s fine, but don’t expect not to get a slap for it

[Jac Hawk]

Ok guys put your handbags down lets not fall out over £5 worth of cables, anyway i've gone through all the posts and unless Anthony has taken apart a set of grey cables and not submitted a post, then it would seem that he has only taken apart a set of the whites, now i'm not disputing that there may be a difference in the cables, but they are both branded as Pure A/V Silver Series, my guess is that 1 type is the old model and 1 is the new, at the end of the day which ever you have got, at £5 a pair that's still fantastic value in my book.

Mike - I've got a spare pair of 2.4m white ones. PM me your address and I'll stick them in the post.

[Welder]

What a kind chap that Kieths is.
I was about to offer a set of the twin shielded RCA (grey, not coaxial) but they are only 0.5 metre and don’t have the original plugs on.

I thought you guys might be interested in a deal I found yesterday at Microdirect in Manchester, although looking on the site it looks available online too.

Not sure how good these are, they look like the blue series but for £1 they seem pretty good.

I bought a few sets this afternoon - so far I've replaced the S/PDIF from Squeezebox Touch to Caiman DAC - I'll get round to doing a proper A/B test between this and my original lead later on in the week, but so far things are sounding good.

I'm also going to give them a run as analogue interconnects, hence the buying a few sets - at a quid a run it's £2 per stereo pair.

[Mark Grant]

I have several pairs, and actually prefer them to my MG's.

No problem

My cable has a flat measured response, an image of some measurements from ages ago:

(I have cropped some stuff out as cant give too much away.)

Comment from an old email from someone that measures lots of stuff that produced the measurements above :

I tested the cables last Friday and, no surprises here, they are perfect. By that I mean absolutely flat to 40kHz+, no phase shift at all anywhere...

certainly flat.

All that matters is that people like how anything sounds in their own systems of course.

[Mark Grant]

Cannot see how these and the PF30 and 40's can be sold so cheap and be profitable, after all why would anyone sell something at less than cost, unless belkin are going blob and getting rid of stocks? The PF30 cannot possibly be manufactured for £25

Made in China, where wages are very low.

I doubt the ebay sellers will be selling the cables or PF30 etc at a loss.

An old thread where a dealer mentions margins etc:

I am low margin...
