Some of the reviews are actually pretty funny, mostly if not all of them are jokes.

The "tags" part of the Denon product page are hilarious too: snake oil, unconscionable, immoral, etc.

Pear Cable is the worst though. They got owned by James Randi, et al who called them on their BS.

Check out the Customer Images for the Denon cables. Pretty funny stuff.

Yes they are, and I also like the customer images.

so what is that a 999 dollar profit? Damn, I wish I would have thought of this first.

Haven't had this much fun reading customer reviews!

I was initially buying this product for its weather resistance claim.

Since I tend to leave my $5695.22 Denon head unit outside in the rain, I was really hoping this cable would keep my unit safe from the elements. While it initially did a great job at wisking away the errant raindrops that would have ruined my system, a change in wind conditions confused the cable and my main unit was soaked. Needless to say, this crappy cable failed to do the one thing I really needed it to do and my system is totally fried.

Let the buyer beware. You have been warned.

I hate it when products fail like this!

It also says on the last line that it'll "likely cost you a bit more than a cool grand." Well, is it $1000 or not?

I payed $ 160 for 2 Belkin HDMI cables but that was before I knew any better.
