It's just good old 316L stainless. Also approved for food contact, which is where I see it used by the yard. The stuff crops up everywhere. Chemicals, marine, jewellery, everywhere. It scores because you can weld it with normal (TIG) gear.By coincidence I was just looking at iphone 14 vs 14 pro specs for my daughter, and apparently the 14 pro uses "Surgical-grade stainless steel". Er, ok, great. I think.
They use good quality cables that aren’t expensive, such as Van Damme. I use it too, at home and in my live PA setups, it’s great stuff. I recently made some cables for a friend, a significant amount of the overall cost was shipping… he’s tried various cables at crazy (four figure) price points. He’s settled on the ones I made at £9 a meter pair (materials cost, they would be more with overheads, but still lower two figures).Studio grade cable? Everyone knows studios use usually use cheap cables
@canonman I would have thought cleaner to sanitary technician would have been nearer the skid mark.

Snap-on?'Military Grade'. Is that when a the spanner supplied with the kit costs about 10 times more than an ordinary spanner doing the same job?
And, before any snide remarks. I'm ex military.
Military grade is clearly below audiophile grade then, as that same spanner would be 100 times more expensive if it was audiophile grade'Military Grade'. Is that when a the spanner supplied with the kit costs about 10 times more than an ordinary spanner doing the same job?

I'd love a flight in an audiophile grade aeroplane. No engineering needed, only blind faith and marketing.“Machined from aircraft-grade aluminium”, in case you want to fly your DAC.

I can never understand two themes that regularly appear on PFM. One is marketing: I dont get the problem - if a product arouses your interest you can look a little further. If the marketing turns you off you can ignore it. We are all functioning, reasoning adults. I actually like learning about new products that I might like.I've heard the term audiophile since I've known about better quality kit (quite a while).
Always hated the term and avoided using it as it screamed "pretentious" to me.
My personal preference always falling under the "music lover" as something more meaningful.
