Apparently, Denon is using RJ45 interconnects on some of their gear. This Amazon ad is ALMOST as funny as the user reviews!

Even Monster Cable is only $15.00 for 6 feet. Of course that isn't for digital audio..

"Monster's advanced XLN Xtra Low Noise™ construction minimizes low frequency noise that can interfere with data transfer, while a special bonding process results in smoother, more stable performance and precise impedance for superior signal integrity. Corrosion-resistant, 24k gold contacts resist corrosion for error-free data transfer and long-term reliability."

$999 is the Refurb price. The used price is almost $3k!

The cable really only cost half that much: http://www.usa.denon.com/productdetails/3429.asp. I saw an audiophile wooden knob for several hundred dollars once. Amazing how gullible people can be.

1. Make love to your wife.
2. Wrap one end of the AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable around your wife's waist; tie the other end to your left testicle (right testicle if you live in the southern hemisphere or Nebraska).
3. MAKE SURE the directional arrows on the AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable are pointing towards you and not your wife.
4. You should immediately see a flash of light and hear the first five notes of Stairway to Heaven. This is your indication that all your manseed has been returned to its source.
5. Place the AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable in the nearest lead lined safe.
6. Repeat steps 1-5.

I once serviced my wife in this manner for 121 hours straight until we ran out of lube, although our average is closer to 87 hours. In appreciation we named our first nine children 'Denon'.
