Default Re: Audiophoolery?

I visit another forum that's dedicated to hifi. It wouldn't be fair to name it. Being sold on there are some second hand mains leads, varying in price from 90 to £120. I mean, the current travels through fuses that are a few thou thick, so what use are 'big' cables?!! The difference in impedance between thick cables and normal ones is the square root of sod all. And in any case, combined with the mains ring main, it all makes no difference whatsoever, and certainly not to the sound. The mind boggles at the level of snake oil being consumed.
