The glorious, wonderful Pear "Anjou" cables are back in the news, this time as the biggest ripoff of the year.  Imagine that.  LOL

I grabbed a pair of these a little while back. I wasn't real thrilled with their sound on my stereo so I hooked them up to my doorbell. Man does that doorbell sound sweet now. 8)

I just ordered a pair to use as jumper cables for my car. I like knowing that I have the most expensive jumper cables ever made. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Besides I think 7k for snake oil is a good price.  ;D
Now I am saving up for my "magic crystals" and some "magic" Ac outlet covers. They really do make a huge difference to my "sound stage"  Next thing I get will be my magic "power bar" that turns my AC absolute perfection with only $4.00 in electronic parts inside it! IT truly is Magic. But like Christmas the "magic" only works if you believe it! And when you have that much disposable income you had better believe.

For all that money, you think they would have spelled "pair" correctly... ;)

quote of the year...... "Simply put, these are very danceable cables. Music playing through them results in the proverbial foot taping scene with the need or desire to get up and move. Great swing and pace—these cables smack that right on the nose big time. In this area, they are simply way better than anything else I have heard prior to their audition"

WOW For that much they should perform a sexual act... Not just make you get up and dance.... LOL...

Don't forget your $1200 1/2 meter audio interconnects with you purchase.  ???  :o  :o

I guess those NBA and MLB players need another way to waste their millions.
