monster is just an audio quality parts brand.
If audio become serious, Audioquest is the start.
Here a Monster Cable spade and banana i have connecter.
Copper can oxide when oxygen comes on the copper. Put on gold spades on the copper cable end tip reduce oxidation. Results, the connection stays correct.
Speaker connection screw: Connected cable have the behavior to expand by spring behavior while manny copper cores bundled. Temperature shrinks and expand the copper cores, so the speaker connection screw will loose tight in time. The cable wil sit loose at the speaker making not a good connection.
The Monster Cable spade and banana do not wind off the speaker screw and hold off the oxidation of the end tip of the copper.
Silver and gold cable have better oxidation resistance, gold is oxidation free, so this is one of the best material for speaker cable.
Silver is more the option for audiophiles, because gold cable is very expensive.
The most exotic speaker cable is carbon.
But more and more audio companies set their cards on wireless transmitting.
Wireless speakers.
There are some that made perfect wireless systems, like Dali.

What kind of store???

Hypothetically you are walking away from your current job, no matter what it is. You've decided, against all odds to open a retail store/boutique, what would it be?? Mine would involve a few of my passions, leather goods, pens, watches, maybe some clothin...
😂 Yeah baby...

You got it absolutely right! Whenever you think about walking away from your job, you‘d better be true to yourself!

Lol. 👍

What i know is, Shiit is located in California. Affordable high quality audio gear. No bla bla, just good sound. They deliver their products here in the EU. Not many distributers, but in the US i think it is easy to find a dealer. picture: One of my Roger...
Sounds nice...

...but these days customers can order for themselves and skip the middle-man (you). Of course, if you have F-U money and don't need to make a profit, then that's altogether different.

It is what Thomas said, if you quit your job and want to start a store/boutique. Yeah, an audio store is hard to keep profitable. Audio is for the most people a forgotten subject. Televisions is different, but also a full market with a lot of competitors....
LOL! . . .

. . . come to think of it, I wonder if Robinhood has The Producers as required 'watching'.

You can buy a gun on line from
By: Thomas_3 : January 28th, 2021-14:40
a dealer who has an FFL, but it has to be shipped to another dealer and not directly to you unless you have a current FFL. You pick it up from the dealer you had it shipped to and usually you have to pay a transfer fee and also complete the paperwork.
True but you still need to physically go to the store
By: Fastwong : January 28th, 2021-15:26
So at that point, if current production, might as well have the local dealer order for you. Plus it's a chance to up sell you on accessories and ammunition for your new toy. I know a shop doing 8 figures out of maybe 2k sqft of b or c grade commercial spa...
? Pawn shop
By: Weems@8 : January 28th, 2021-15:30
I think you want to have a pawn shop. There are not many in France maybe, so the people can be curious about pawn shops.
