not knowing about the better things in life does sound appealing because of all the money you can save… it’s sort of like the matrix… you just picked the other pill fry. ---

it’s about a means to an end. getting a nice stereo image and caring enough to figure out how to do it. finding a way to make a voice roll off realistically and smooth up top. getting noise from two speakers doesn’t take much effort or expense… but if you really care and enjoy then you end up on a quest to find what will work. sometimes it’s cheap, sometimes it’s expensive… or you can just write off the whole thing as a waste of time and money… that’s the difference I’m talking about. put into car terms… the first time you drive a car that gets to 60 in 6 seconds it feels fast… then you drive one that does it in 4 and 6 is now slow… but if you take somebody who just needs some milk, spending twice as much for 2 seconds is a foolish venture. ---

> AK-DL1 > > $499.00 > > Denon’s 1.5 meter (59 in.) ultra premium Denon Link cable was designed for the audio enthusiast. Made from high purity copper wire and high performance connection parts, the AK-DL1 will bring out all the nuances in digital audio reproduction from any of our Denon DVD players with the Denon Link feature. Attention to detail when building this cable was used by **empoying** high quality insulation, tin-bearing alloy shielding and woven jacketing to reduce vibration and to add durability. Additionally, signal directional markings are provided for optimum signal transfer. Rounded plug levers help prevent breakage. Thats kinda sad. ---

Crap. I deleted instead of editing… It was “empoying” not “employing” right after they talked about attention to detail. ---
