Magical signal saving tape? Tell us more!

I can do you one better, I'll send ya a full meter roll of the stuff for $30!

Jokes aside the rubber sleeve cracked and exposed its innards back when it was with its owner. Sweet hell, cables can't last long around here.

Gotta keep those magical electrical pixies in somehow!

Three kinds of tape applied at various points in time work, so long as enough goats are sacrificed and you threaten to blackmail the pixies using spy footage taken during spring break.

It's genius really. Market the 'signal purifying tape' on various audiophile websites, and you'll have more than enough cables.
(please don't sacrifice any goats...I like them better than many people I know. Now if you want to start sacrificing audiophools...)

Is that some sort of custom cable there? Perhaps you could tell the owner that his phones would sound better if he made his cables more waterproof!

@Jinxy245 's idea has value.

Just get the tape OEM to print you a custom label, find someone local to make you cheap wooden boxes, line them with dollar store fake velvet, and say the tape is made from plasma-deposited pixie wings and the glue from boiled unicorns.

When you become a well-paid rich person, don't forget your friends. Meaning me.

@Jinxy245 HAHA! I swear if I had no integrity I might actually do just that. Something about helping galvanic isolation and adding to the skin effect. Sad thing is I feel many might actually fall for that :/

@Thad E Ginathom Nope, just the stock HD800 cable. My friend bought it used and has had it for a few years (S/N 228XX), but the local climate just really sucks for cable longevity.

@Taverius Definitely not gonna forget about you guys! Gonna be sending you free samples each ;) (lol!)

Jokes aside, I actually gave it some thought after reading your comments and figure I could come up with some shmancy packaging to go with the tape. Might ask for woodworking advice from @Elnrik or something.
