How Much Have You Spent On Cables Throughout The Years. I'm Shocked When I Checked.


I just checked the total cost of cables which I still own, all types of cables including spares. It's all recorded in an Excel sheet, actual price paid and not MSRP.

I'm shocked. It's a whopping sum of $22.4k. crying

I'm sure there would be people who have spent more. I have seriously overspent on cables though I still need to get another mains power cable before I call it a day, a rather costly one.

oh no, not again!

@buellrider97 @mgrif104 Thank you. 

I’ve spent a lot; more than I want to calculate. Do I wish I had spent less? Of course. But, I feel overall it’s been worth it — to me. This year, I’ve changed out one IC and the speaker cables. Totally satisfied and happy with it. I’d like to swap out one or two more ICs. We’ll see. Not a top priority.

But, yeah, probably made one or two mistakes over the years (at least). Whaddya gonna do?

All I know is that I replaced some decent cables with a higher priced product that had gotten excellent reviews.  The more expensive side cables had a dramatic   positive impact  on the music as listened to by my own and my wire’ s ears.  And, to me, it is all about the music!

Started out as a cable non-believer. I used to tease my friend about his fancy cables. Alas, I replaced a couple cables here and there, and heard a difference. Sometimes better, a few times worse. But yeah. A real and audible difference. Recently, I’ve replaced a couple power cables and interconnects with Luna cables and could not be happier. If you are like I was, and scoff at these things, I would invite you to open your mind and ears. You might surprise yourself. I certainly did.
