Yeah, Mark, but look at that tempting length discount; if you need 2 meters it's only $549. These things fall into the "sucker born every minute" category. Power cords that, for example, have no problem with 1500 watts or so for a hair dryer running at full blast nevertheless "choke" far lower power to audio equipment.
Ken was of course poking fun at the line of some audiophiles that not only should you "trust your ears", it's mandatory that you try it and do so if you expect them to pay any attention; mere decades of well-established audio principles can be dismissed. One problem is that when the only situation that allows actually trusting only the ears, i.e. a blind listening test, is proposed or discussed, they have about as much enthusiasm for it as a vampire for sunlight.
