That may be the case, but Tony and I were just trying to answer Mouse's question regarding why Shunyata Research does not provide a copper purity specification greater than 99.99%. That's because purity greater than 99.99% does not exist in the copper materials industry.

Given that Shunyata Research is, above and beyond anything else, very much a science and data-driven company, and not given by nature to "hyperbole", they provide facts as to the purity of the copper for the products they manufacture.

Contrast this to Synergistic Research's "quantum tunneling" of cables. Talk about 'yer audio industry hyperbole, WTF does that mean???
