High end USB cables are the bedrock of Quantum Fruitlooery and the $2,000 Synergistic USB cable is truly top shelf fruitloopery. When Stereophile frist launched the audiostream.com site Michael Lavorgna, the lead writer for audiostream.com, (who did NOT write the review of the Synergistic USB cable) actually showed that he almost understood computers and digital audio but then the hammer came down and now he is as big a clown as the rest of the Stereophile staff. I quite agree that even trying to inject some scientific truths into any audiophile discussion has now become very taboo and only leaves oneself open to all kinds of ridicule from the brain dead audiophiles who made up the bulk of this once worthwhile hobby. I loved the "Objective Data" comment: classic audiophile cherry picking of completely irrelevant information. I'm sure that Henry Ott would be amused and amazed that his work is being so badly distorted.
