    After WM's lambasting of Kimber Monocle cable elsewhere, for its FarEast production and rip off price via RA, thought you might like to check this one out:D

    http://www.wanlung.com.tw/occ-pure-2.htm

    Seems the word is out, AZ are just charging the earth for a Taiwanese cable that is available off the reel or made up over there at a fraction of the cost. Even the terminations are the same!

    So any of you guys fancy ordering up a drum of Hologram 11 and selling the spare on Hififorsale;) We could cryo it as well:D

    if my failing maths ability is working, thats between £8 and £11 p/m
    a bargain on a stick

    But how many people would you need to make it a viable proposition!

    Does go to show the outrageous markup on kit, kind of kills it for people with other commitments

    Catching up on previous post after being away for a couple weeks, this post just made me angry. Looking at the wanlung site I found this interconnect cable:

    http://www.wanlung.com.tw/silver.htm

    I thought to myself, that looks familiar:

    http://www.ecossecables.co.uk/Tables/table_frameset7.html

    Quoting from this page:
    Mmmmm, lets see:

    http://www.audiocominternational.com/store/na12165.asp

    Prices from here are 1metre RCA £315, 1metre XLR £345

    and:

    http://hificables.co.uk/acatalog/Cable_catalogue_Hificables_Interconnects_31.html

    With a price of 1metre RCA at £290.

    So I guess that ecossecables would rip you off for about £800 for 1metre RCA.

    In my opinion, don't buy this cable from ecossecables!

    Is it possible to buy Neotech cables at a reasonable price in the UK?
