The Most Powerful Link Cable In Existence

The Denon AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable

It costs $500 for a mere 1.5 meters, so obviously you’re going to get your money’s worth. Digital sound will be more digital than you could ever dream. It’s not just 1s and 0s, it’s 1s and 0s that will kick your ass.

The reviews are not to be missed, of course. If you don’t believe me, believe the people whose lives have been changed by Denon.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA <breathe>…more digital… HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

Its a freakin piece of ethernet cable dummy.

I have one I will sell you one for $10

Great username / post combo!
For a real LOL, look at the tags suggested for this item!

Hm. It’s vibration, jitter and rumble resistant, weather resistant, and has anti-aging properties!

So, when a hurricane, earthquake, tsunami, volcano takes out your house, destroys all your equipment, and you wake up 100 years later in your time-stasis machine, gosh darn it this cable will be there for you! :wink:

I’m looking at the cabling chapter of my network+ guide right now and I’m not seeing anything about vibration, jitter or rumble, and the only “weather resistance” you’re generally worried about is what toxic chemicals it gives off in a fire.

Well they’d just about cream their jeans if they plunked down nearly $12,000 for a pair of 8’ speaker cables then!

I’m sure that these ship with far more adjectives and are extremely betterer.

List Price: $500.99

You Save: $1.00 :smiley:

Holy shit, I just about pissed my pants reading this review.

Obviously those are crap compared to $33,000 8’ speaker cables! (PDF)

James Randi has a standing challenge to people who believe this type of stuff is a lick better than the el cheapo stuff from Wal-Mart, Best Buy, etc. If you can tell the difference between these and cheap cables in a double-blind test, you win. No one has won.

I understand, my brother. Until you’ve felt the healing power of the AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable for yourself, you can only ever doubt. I will pray to Denon for you.

Hey, a dollar’s a dollar! Let me get my credit card …

This UserFriendly is relevant here, as are the next three. Heh.

Ah, yes, the realm of the Gear Geek.

It’s the same way with guitar cords - folks will pay hundreds or thousands of dollars to get anodized this and gold-plated that…

…what’s hilarious is that some of the most respected players - Hendrix and Stevie Ray being well-known examples - who went out of their way to find cheap-ass, Radio Shack curly cords - the kind you got for $8.99 back in the 60’s and 70’s, and which had a right-angle jack at one end that didn’t last long - because they liked how those cords sounded (the cords were long and inefficient, so cut some of the highs…)

I know - with stereo and computer cabling you want completely flat signal transmission, whereas with a guitar rig, you want stuff that affectst the tone, as long as it sounds good - but it is still silly…

Uh, yeah, you do that.

In the meantime I will be starting my business plan to sell Cat6 ethernet cable for $300/foot.

Your data will take on new depth after passing through this enhanced cable.

Dood, like I’m totally receiving you over a 10GBASE-SR cable and like, I’m getting all the colors and sound from what you’re saying.

Of course, I also dropped acid 15 minutes ago.

I’ve mentioned it before, but Denon has a long way to go before it can contend with the undisputed leader of audiophile chutzpah, Machina Dynamica.

I am not following the point of this thread at all. It sounds like people think they enjoy “music” yet insist on buying their cables from the discount bin at Wal-Mart. I figure if you do something, do it right.

These cables at $23,000 for an 8’ pair are the best things I ever bought (except for the receiver, pre-amp, amp, speakers, electromagnetic shielding, and electrical purifier to go with it). Double-blind testing my ass. I know minute improvements when I think I hear them.

Bet you didn’t know that Wal-Mart audio cables automatically censor any naughty words or suggestive lyrics.

::Grabs tissue to wipe tears from laughter off of cheek::

::Grabs paper towel to wipe snorted Coke from keyboard::

::Stands and applauds the best laugh I’ve had all day, “I know minute improvements when I think I hear them.”::

::Reaches for another paper towel…::

I wonder if any of the reviewers has actually bought the cable.
