Based on Ajax's forum registration date. I took his words as advice to a relative newcomer, and they were moderate.

Moderate words from a pseudo-moderator. Ha!

Seriously, I'm glad to hear you say this because that's how I meant them. My post was meant to be a comment on, not a criticism of, yours.

...And no worries. I took it as such and appreciated the intent.

Jack, we understood your meaning, but if you should ever travel abroad apparently it would be better if you just kept your hands in your pockets at all times.

I received an answer regarding the frequency response graph that Peter posted. Peter, you obviously missed the fact that Pear was not only comparing speaker cable but also interconnects \:D \:D \:D \:D .

Query:

Adam,

Your website contains a system frequency response graph of an ideal cable, your competitor's cable and Pear cable. I am unaware of any reputable speaker cable that would exhibit a frequency response such as the one posted on your site. What "competitor's cable" are you referring to exactly?

Response:

Hello,

In future correspondence please identify yourself.

With regard to your question about the cables used in the Frequency Response graph on our website, from your question it appears that you may have missed the fact that this is a system frequency response which reflects the differences when both the interconnects and speaker cables have been swapped not just the speaker cables). While we cannot reveal specific brands, we
can say the the interconnect is a standard import coaxial style cable and the speaker cable is a standard import zip cord style.

Sincerely,

Adam Blake
