Denon's selling a snake oil $500 interconnect cable, and the reviewers on Amazon<\/a> are having lots of fun with it, just as they did with the Tuscan Whole Milk<\/a>. For example:<\/p>\n

A caution to people buying these: if you do not follow the \"directional markings\" on the cables, your music will play backwards. Please check that before mentioning it in your reviews.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

...and...<\/p>\n

\nThe cabling system has a base-plate connector of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings are in a direct line with the pentametric fan. The main cable winding is of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremble pipe to the differential girdlespring on the 'up' end of the grammeters. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

...and...<\/p>\n

I was expecting high fidelity using Denon cables but what I got was a revelation. I heard God -faint at first but definitely Him. It turns out He has been wanting to get in touch for a long time but other audio-cables just weren't good enough to carry His signal.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But my favorite is from reviewer R. Blais<\/a>, who writes:<\/p>\n

I accidentally dropped one end of my Denon cable into a glass of Tuscan whole milk I was drinking. Later when I finished my milk (yeah, I still drank it; should I not have done that?), my right arm (lost in an accident in 1987) spontaneously grew back.<\/p>\n

Is that normal? <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
