Say it ain’t so!

I just can’t give up on this one… Okay, I’m reading the description of this $1500 power cable.
“The Clairvoyant’s signature is engaging, energetic, and bristling with light and microdynamic life”; “lifelike timing and pace” coupled with “clarity, definition, lithe touch, and articulation throughout the lower registers.”
WHAT!?? It’s a frigg’n power cable!
Oh, and it gets better… Now there’s a $2200 version of the cable:

Still, I had to go back and re-read the first cables description a little more…
Despite their lack of social standing and diminutive presence, there are select power-cord lines that have become popular among audio explorers — and no, not because of the politics, payoffs, or consumer naiveté’ to which skeptics ascribe their success. The most competently engineered power cords on the market will audibly reduce AC-borne noise in a system.
It’s good to know there’s a cable out there that will properly preserve the noise generated on the thousands of miles of power lines between the power plant and my studio.
