Purist Audio Design - Dominus Interconnect Cable

Hi,

Not to downgrade the efforts of cable designers, for me cable industry is the least technical demanding one among the audio equipment manufacture field but the price tags grow exponentially in the past decade. I can pay for technologies like amorphous metal alloys from Stealth or the battery-biased designs of Audioquest. But Purist Audio Design provides inadequate information to convince me to make the purchase. Even their most advanced technology years ago – The Radiant Light Source (RLS), they did not explain the source of the designed illuminating light.

So help me here. How to justify the over $5,000 price tag of Dominus interconnect cable at 1-mter length.

Thanks and Happy Listening!

There *is* no justification from dropping 5 large on an interconnect cable. C'mon, think about it, you slap this uber-expensive cable between a source and the preamp and then the little bitty wires in the preamp pick up the signal and do their part to transfer it through the various stages in the preamp and then out to the power amp.

Until, and if, the wiring in the preamp is upgraded to "magic wire" status, installing a $5k interconnect is simply a fool's game. IMHO, of course...
