Don't read you'll be sorry


Just got my new Audioquest K 2 speaker cables from DH GATE yep I said it. I bought my previous Audioquest cables from my former employer [Audio Buys] Summer job pre wiring houses. Still great friends. Anyway paid their cost for a brand spanking new pair of "Bed Rock" cables I was so proud. So what I know are quote un quote real Audioquest cables just got blown away by a $380.00 total cost [shipped door to door in 6 days] pair of Audioquest k2's from DH Gate.

Did 1 of you actually take the time to write who cares? Seems you care the most. Thank you. Again I'm not trying to gain anything here. All I'm saying is the writing's on the wall. China is taking over. All of you will buy from them eventually. Everyone accept the guy who took the time to write I don't care. He's to proud.

No one should ever have to pay 3000.00 for a pair of cables. Agreed?
Been a member for over 5 years just to get things straight. There are no moderators here because audiogon sold out a while back. That's why I left. Probably sold out to China. This place became ebay about 2 years ago where you been? And you're correct it's a shame.
wow just checked you sell allot of cables here eslaudio where do you get em from?
Now if I really was "that guy" I'd be selling these here or e bay or the sight allot of us have moved on to. Instead I'm just trying to raise the point that all you snake oil salesmen are through. 99% of all the cables you swear by come from China to begin w/. Don't believe me call your brand and ask em where there are manufactured.
Mark my words DH GATE will be on everyone's lips w/ in a year. They're gonna cut out the middle-man and all those 400% mark ups. Just for kicks anyone wanna buy a brand new pair of audioquest k2's orginal box all packing supplies included? list price 3000.00 I'll let em go for 50% off that price what a deal right? Or you could do what I did [on a whim] log onto dh gate and pay 380 and have em by mon or tues of next week.
High end home audio is getting ready to change big time.
Cheers,
I'm gone

Hey silkric if your so smart that you can figure out someones finanical worth by reading his words, you truly are a cut above. My only concern is why haven't you cured cancer yet? Since you're so "bright" Don't hold your head so high, you're nose is blocking my light.
Careful.367 these folks are real sensitive on here. Seems to come natural for people w/ more dollars than SENSE.
We all make our points our own way. When's the last time you actually took the time and effort to write that much on a thread?

You're welcome.

O yeah, if people on here are angry, bad news pal. They were angry long before I got here. All I've done is type some words. Community is a big word. Covers allot of ground. Doesn't mean we all have to see eye to eye or get along for every instant. That would be a rather short sighted point of view for such an elete bunch don't you think?
Okay here's the deal. Been dealing w/ Nigel @ Audioquest, My local brick and mortar AQ dealer, and Pay Pal. First off if you order from Dh gate you're supporting fakes. AQ is very nice but fed up w/ this subject. And Pay pal is going to refund my $. I ordered a pair of Sky interconnects and the nightmare began, seller on Dhgate flat out tried the Jedi mind trick on me. So got me to thinking, called AQ and got walked through dis assembling these. Mine were the bi wire 72 v dbs version. Yes mine are Rockfeller 3 [AQ never heard of version 3] also mine were wired backwards. So they are also defective. Long story short, according to pay pal if anyone sells these they are commiting a crime and to pass around is to continue to keep a fake in circulation. I had to provide a statement saying I have destroyed mine. Gotta admit 956.00 for a pair of rockfellers got my attention. However I jumped ship and bought a mega price pair of MIT's from Brick and Mortar shop. Should be here by next Fri. My k2's? in the trash. I can tell you those sellers on dh gate and dh gate are real real nasty when it comes time to own up. As you can see I'm not so tactful sometimes.
Have a great day all. And if I can be of any assistance to any of you in this matter shoot me a line. I'm also formerly Rebos12367 here. Got fed up w/ new system and left. Still on the fence w/ buying here again, however I am thinking I need a new processor any ideas?

What i said was AFTER i got the "k2's" I tried to order a pair of sky interconnects then the true nightmare began seller tried the order is being held in customs line and bogus tracking info. DHL and Pay pal advised me that i was being ripped off. So I opened a claim w/ pay pal they since [not because of me] have stopped duing transactions w/ dh gate. For this exact reason, thier crooks. My speaker cables were the bi wire version and yes the cables were wired backwards. The interconnects never existed guy just flat out tried to rip me off. Crooks user name is audiok on dh gate and seller of k2's is audiophile.
O and for the person who actually ordered a pair also be prepaired to recieve all sorts of interesting e-mails. Don't know if it cause I got $ back out of em or it's just thier standard jive. Like I said they are real nasty. I blocked em.
Bad idea, these jokers don't play. Remember they have your shipping address. I recieved calls from MD and CA trying to convince me to drop my pal pal dispute. Also from DH Gate's main page too. They are all in it togther.
Have we just come full circle from my orginal post? We truly are a strange breed. As I count 3 items have been purchased as a result.

I did do a head to head w/ my "bed rocks" before trashing mine. The "ha" K2's were, hate to say it better all around. I might be an ass but I'm a honest ass. Mine are long gone [trashman came yesterday] MIT's are supposed to be here FRI. So I'll be posting experience w/ them as well. If you guys turn around and buy 3 sets of them as a result....................................good times.
If you would allow me to "help" if needed. You should be able to remove 1 of the connections. Either end. My bet is they are the same as everyone else got. There are very small arrows on the individual wires black and red. As well as the words bass and treble.
New cables arrived of course they are the best on the planet cause I got em [hehe] All jokes aside, pay pal refunded my $ to me for the K2 knock off's, Yes part of the deal was that I destroy them, done. FYI, MIT has dis continued 3 of their lines EXP AVT and CVT oops Shotgun too I think. Cables are so confusing. Anyway great deals are out there for these now. I decided on the CVT Terminator 2. Wow! [quit laughing] bass extention is incredible and I guess you guru's call it cymbal decay? Never had a reference point w/ this before. To me alot more "full/rich" sound. Audioquest were real clean and bright almost harsh compaired to these. Been burning in since Fri. These just so far keep getting happier and happier of maybe that's me. I do have 1 question [here we go again] I ended up buying single wire version. My question is do aftermarket "jumpers" make a difference over "stock" jumpers that came w/ speakers?
Thanx!
