Oh, I don't know. Maybe, just maybe, those letters we get from
Oxfam etc. telling us how much good £25, £50, whatever, can do in a
poor area have a grain of truth. Which could maybe influence our
decision next time we're tempted to splash out on snake-oil :-)
"Well, *I* think it makes a difference! And it's *MY* money! So

But why single out hi-fi enthusiasts for this? You could make this argument
about anything that involves spending large sums of money on hobbies;
photography, computers, many sports - you name it.
Face it; he was just trying to provoke a reaction probably because he can't
afford the kit that's talked about on this NG. I stand by my original

PS - I've been a regular supporter of Oxfam for years, so I'm off to buy
some new speaker cable now :-)
