If you're paying that much, I don't think free shipping makes much difference!

uh yeah, I guess sometimes you need a "sarcasm" button.  ::)

I make the performers hold my monitor cables up off the floor, makes for way better sound! ;D

Don't forget to "Harvest" your noise!  Also make sure you install multiples around!  One on each outlet to really Harvest the noise!!

"Free shipping. 10% discount on your order for will-call pickup."

(Not really, but I wouldn't put THAT past some online shyster.)

Reminds me of the time I almost bought a refurbished PC component that was listed for a really good price (I think it was on the old egghead.com). Sure, it was cheap, but the shipping was outrageous. Just for kicks, I checked the price on the exact same item, "new in box", and it came with free shipping. The total price for the refurb unit with shipping was more than a new unit with free shipping.

To be fair, those "cable elevators" are probably the first product they've ever sold that actually does what it says on the can; it keeps the cables out of the beer.

If you really want it clean, line all your equipment up so the cables are in a perfect straight line. 
Obviously every bend in the cable will degrade the signal.

Think how hard the electrons have to work to make the turn.

And some of the high frequency rubs off on the walls of the insulation.

We, you do have to be careful with RF test set ups not to let cables be bent too sharply.

Of course depending on your take, audio only has a bandwidth of 20-50kHz.
