After WM's lambasting of Kimber Monocle cable elsewhere, for its FarEast production and rip off price via RA, thought you might like to check this one out

http://www.wanlung.com.tw/occ-pure-2.htm

Seems the word is out, AZ are just charging the earth for a Taiwanese cable that is available off the reel or made up over there at a fraction of the cost. Even the terminations are the same!

So any of you guys fancy ordering up a drum of Hologram 11 and selling the spare on Hififorsale We could cryo it as well

12 Meters pwetty please

[edit] wich cable am i looking at

 

[penance]

2000m

erm

cost?

 

[penance]

oh eck

maybe i should retract my request for 6m

bit of a bugger all this hextortionate pricing, im starting to think that i should stop worring about my system until i replace the 2.5 T&E

[edit] my maths is slow, aint so bad when you work it out

 

[penance]

if my failing maths ability is working, thats between £8 and £11 p/m
a bargain on a stick

But how many people would you need to make it a viable proposition!

Does go to show the outrageous markup on kit, kind of kills it for people with other commitments

Catching up on previous post after being away for a couple weeks, this post just made me angry. Looking at the wanlung site I found this interconnect cable:

http://www.wanlung.com.tw/silver.htm

I thought to myself, that looks familiar:

http://www.ecossecables.co.uk/Tables/table_frameset7.html

Quoting from this page:

At £585.00 (U.K. SSP), per 0.5m pair (RCA), or only £725.00, per 0.5m pr (XLR), this is not an inexpensive audio interconnect.

Mmmmm, lets see:

http://www.audiocominternational.com/store/na12165.asp

Prices from here are 1metre RCA £315, 1metre XLR £345

and:

http://hificables.co.uk/acatalog/Cable_catalogue_Hificables_Interconnects_31.html

With a price of 1metre RCA at £290.

So I guess that ecossecables would rip you off for about £800 for 1metre RCA.

In my opinion, don't buy this cable from ecossecables!

Is it possible to buy Neotech cables at a reasonable price in the UK?
