Also, I can fly now because of this cable

I love how this line was not related to anything else in that review.  :clapping:

Dam i should get back in the cable business, i know it would be tough but if i can find a way to only charge 3500.00 i can corner the market. Who needs a set of stubbies...only 5.00 extra bucks but i will pick up the shipping and pp fees ;D

The K2 terminated Audioquest cables are responsible for this...

1.0 out of 5 stars I have only a little time..., November 15, 2010

We live underground. We speak with our hands. We wear the earplugs all our lives.

PLEASE! You must listen! We cannot maintain the link for long... I will type as fast as I can.

DO NOT USE THE CABLES!

We were fools, fools to develop such a thing! Sound was never meant to be this clear, this pure, this... accurate. For a few short days, we marveled. Then the... whispers... began.

Were they Aramaic? Hyperborean? Some even more ancient tongue, first spoken by elder races under the red light of dying suns far from here? We do not know, but somehow, slowly... we began to UNDERSTAND.

No, no, please! I don't want to remember! YOU WILL NOT MAKE ME REMEMBER! I saw brave men claw their own eyes out... oh, god, the screaming... the mobs of feral children feasting on corpses, the shadows MOVING, the fires burning in the air! The CHANTING!

WHY CAN'T I FORGET THE WORDS???

We live underground. We speak with our hands. We wear the earplugs all our lives.

Do not use the cables!

4.0 out of 5 stars If only Heracles had such power!, March 19, 2009
By
Valannin "Pantheon Outcast" (NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: AudioQuest K2 terminated speaker cable - UST plugs 8' (2.44m) pair (Electronics)
If there is one cable I would whole-heartedly trust to my Chimera-hunting needs, this would be the cable. No other cable has the tensile strength to properly and efficiently garrote a lycanthrope, asphyxiate an Esquilax or even gag a mermaid. Last week, using my trusty AudioQuest K2 (retrofitted with lead weights, bright orange latex paint and a generous coating of crushed glass stolen from the window of an abandoned church at midnight), I managed to snuff 3 golden unicorns in swift succession!

Pros: Quickly tears through scales, fur, bone, and adamantium with ease
Coils and uncoils from hip holster (optional) quickly and quietly
For a product fabricated from 1,000 Onyx Dragon fetuses, the price is unbelievably reasonable!

Cons: Shipping from the R'lyeh took far too long
Doesn't come in 10' lengths (which would be perfect for hydra, cerberii and other multi-headed creatures)
After every use, I can feel 6 ounces of my soul slipping from my core into the ether. But this may be due to the fact that I prefer to work without gloves. YMMV.

Overall, I would recommend that any hunter buy one, nay, two, of these immediately, and experience the difference that upgrading to the K2 will make in your next quest!

With the help of this cable, I can now experience music the way it's meant to be heard. I find that plugging this directly into my ears helps transmit the cleanest, most pure sound. Make sure you clean your ears out though (with liquefied dark matter, of course), because quality will suffer if your ear-holes aren't sparkly clean.

Also, I can fly now because of this cable.

This line from a "review" is the greatest:

4.0 out of 5 stars Great cables for the money!!, March 2, 2011

This review is from: AudioQuest K2 terminated speaker cable - UST plugs 8' (2.44m) pair (Electronics)
I've been shopping for cables for sometime to hook up to my RadioShack 4440-T Speakers and needed something that would really transmit the full power of my music through them. I almost bought the more expensive K3 cables for $34,000 a pair but the wife was really complaining about the cost so I settled for these. WOW! The fidelity of these are amazing, especially considering I only paid $8,450 a set!!! I may upgrade at some point, but for now these will do.

Strangely, two weeks after purchasing these my cancer went into remission and I began growing hair again after 20 years of baldness. I'm not convinced the cables were the cause, but after viewing some of the other reviews I'm starting to wonder.
