Although I suspect we are all the same. Start off with bell wire....continual upgrades to unicorn hair. Mad aren't we. |

So true Olster, the times i've thought exactly the same, that if her ladyship ever knew - flippin 'eck, she'd have more than a fit !  and yeah, I do think we must be nuts, at times. Music and hifi is a real pleasure but at the same time a rabbit hole and sure way to haemorrhage money, usually money we aint really got either  |

Wouldn't 2497 be better for a phono cable?

I've always said, that if the worse to happen was that I was hit by a bus, owing the world a couple of grand, considering, I've paid every bill, raised three children, grown up well and never done without in the real sense, always paid my way with the house and with the Mrs, pretty much done all I should as a man, in life, then I dont think that would be too bad in my book |

Wouldn't 2497 be better for a phono cable? Why ?? The 2803 would be ace as a speaker cable, but they do it as an interconnect too, hence I'm guessing it would be a great phono cable too, only one way to find out. The 2497 would be another option, there's their 2459 as well  I guess, looks like Mogami do some damn good cable from what I've read |

You can't take it with you, which reminds me of the old Bob Hope joke when he said "I think Bing has found a way of taking it with him, I saw him buying an asbestos suitcase the other day".
