As funny as most of these "reviews" are, it really is sad since these reviews just show how most non-audiophiles view audiophiles and their ridiculous toys. Nonetheless I am still sorely tempted to try this wonderful product based solely on this review: "Horrified, June 20, 2008 By Deviant This review is from: Denon AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable (Electronics) Me and my brother chose to listen chose Captain Beefhearts 'Trout Mask Replica' after setting up this cable with our Denon Home Theatre System....." I've listened to Trout Mask Replica hundreds of times over these past 40 years in may different mental states but I never experienced anything like what is described in the above review. Maybe those audiophile reviewers are onto something that we skeptics are simply unaware of. Transdimensional Beefheart - what a concept!
