As an afterthought, iron, nickel, arsenic, cobalt and zinc dissolve as sulphates, while the platinum metals, with selenium, tellurium, lead, bismuth, tin and antimony deposit in the anode slime with the gold and silver. So on the face of it, copper scrap can be reprocessed to produce electrical quality copper.

That name is just a marketting hype AFAIC. As already said Overpriced speaker cables. waste of money. Just use normal Cu flex cable, even TPS will do. I use 4 mm² TPS on my stereo system which works fine. Ok i have no oxygen coated ears either  A multi stranded conductor is probably better than a 7 stranded conductor, because on higher frequencies the skin effect becomes more paramount. As long Copper is used i can't see any difference here.
The product of rotation, excitation and flux produces electricty.

After about 150 hours of break in, you ears will thank you. What happens after 150 hours?

You have to give it break in time for the molecules in the contacts to become properly aligned for superb power flow to the equipment.

Deep cryo my butt! What do you want to bet none of that stuff ever sees anything lower than room temperature. You think those weasels are going to spend money for liquid nitrogen and containers? Who would ever know the difference?

Yep, these are likely the same people who have managed to convince the world that CAT5e cable is going to make phone conversations sound better on a standard (POTS) phone line. I challenge anyone on this planet to prove this.

If the other cable is "quad" and there are two lines involved, I have no doubt that Cat5E would sound better by preventing crosstalk.
But then so would Cat3 or, hell, AT&T DIW.

Lets see the Audio phile has probably lost some of their hearing just like most adults. Audiophiles will spend $3000 to $5000 for a power distribution panel that is a standard home service panel from Europe with the neutral and ground buss made from a big block of copper and gold plated. Even at retail you could purchase the panel and plate the bus with gold for less than $1000. They spend $300 for hdmi cables made by Monster for digital signals. They buy analogue records, made from digital masters because they sound purer yet completely avoid the same recording if offered at the same quality as the Digital master. Even if they have equipment that samples at the same level as those analogue records made from digital.
Don't even get me going on $5000 cd players. I stopped being and Audiophile after my 3rd or forth rock concert or maybe it was the construction. I know I can't hear 20 to 20khz any more and there are a few frequencies in the middle I don't hear too well any more.
BTW I love buying that real nice loom for auto wiring and covering my $20 HDMI cables and calling them Monster killers ;-)
