The wire isn't generally something that's focused on though, is it? Like everyone knows those gold plated cables are scams. I thought the quality of the audio or the speaker/headphones were the big focus.

Also, sample size of nine people and two of them failed to fill out the survey correctly lol

AFAIK they're still running the cable scam and middle-aged dentists with more money than sense are still falling for it.
