Here's the rest of that setup. Those are *mains power* cables — no bloody way that's legal.
The Reddit thread is fun, too.

@bloor
A wee bit like squirrel cage HF antennae - measured for a particular frequency but the multiple conductors gave very wide bandwidth. But that only works at radio frequencies....

@ben @dazo @bloor Like this for example.. looks suspiciously like someone rebranded a £10 netgear switch..

Early days with this product but first impressions are very positive. The sound is now “calmer” you get the impression the performers have more time and space. The entire frequency range is sharper but without being brittle. There’s just a rightness with the music, I am drawn in to the music, more engaged and that is what the listener is always striving for. I think the English Electric 8Switch is a keeper!
What are those people smoking?
Can I have some? -

@bloor I don’t care what people say, I can _hear_ the difference when I use these $20000 custom audio cables.
Worth every penny.

That is pretty interesting, thank you.
It seems I stumble upon strange tech lore every day here.

Can I have some?The more you pay, the more you need to convince others it's better ... Otherwise you admit to being fooled and tricked to give away lots if money for no valid reasons ... Basically to not look like an idiot ... except ........
