Those people are just like drug dealers -- they give you a little taste

I love this statement:
the people selling these cables are hardly the
first people to notice that radio frequency
interference in the mains power might mess up the
sound of your hi-fi, so the power supply in your
equipment will be chock full of all kinds of
deliberate tricks to filter it
MMG's are not true audiophile, no -- but they are still great speakers
for the money, and they will let you figure out if you really like the
planar sound.
The main drawback is that the sweet spot for MMG's is very small.
Second, they don't have a lot of low end. In an optimal setup, they're
