What the, and I cannot overstate this, fuck?

@bloor Audiophile stuff is usually bizarre but this...

Designed by someone who doesn't understand how *anything* works.

@bloor it probably harmonises the electron wave function so they collapse at the same time as they enter the synergistic flux capacitor interface.

Or some such bollocks.

@bloor, I think that I'll just note that “wired” is an anagram of “weird” and leave it at that.

(Also of “I drew”, but I don't think that that's relevant.)

@bloor I've personally tested these, they sound warm, but dry and with a hint of walnut.

@bloor we bought some shitty shielded cable for the theatre. It felt quite nice, very flexible and thick.

It was bulked out by string. Ok for strain relief, and was reasonably hard wearing. The down side was the shielding made long runs quite capacitive. So if we had phantom powered mics, and someone stomped on the cable, it’d pick it up and make a loins booming noise.

@bloor @catsalad

That’s pretty sweet tbh. Once they’re passé with the audiophile crowd, maybe I can get them cheap and put googly eyes on them

@secretbatcave @bloor “Loins booming” now there’s a description

@bloor ah yes, the maximally untwisted pair, for that extra interference on the signal lines. It greatly improves audio quality, or something.

@bloor Wut kinda crazy assed spider sht is this?

@bloor

I'd guess this person smokes some really interesting stuff while listening to some very strange music.

And has a lot of spare time.

@bloor whew. Fuck "Monster cable," that's Cthulu Cable.

@bloor audiophile usb cables hurt my brain too.

I would like one of these power cables for my toaster, though, ngl

@bloor no ground lifters... i am shocked!

@bloor I think that's treatable with antibiotics.

@tony @bloor Oh, I believe you're slightly wrong here.

The designer behind these cables knows a thing or two about psychology and how business economy works ....

@bloor
Could it be a misguided attempt at preventing the wires from interfering with each other?

@bloor

Drop a paper clip and cross the streams!

@bloor david cronenberg gets a boner from these cables

@thomasclaburn @bloor I think you mean antifungals. Antibiotics can exacerbate a fungal infection by reducing competition from harmless bacteria.
