I don't mind the power adapter so much as I mind the price :no:

That too. but it is a true fiber optic cable which is pretty rad.

so this is the only cable that isn't true bypass?

there's got to be an AD & DA conversion in there.
your analog tone???? eaten up and gone!
aren't fibre optics only use for digital signals. ? it'd be neat if i'm wrong.

i don't care how lame i'd look... if it weren't for the power cord thing and the crazy price, i'd go buy one right now.

Do you have to wrap it around yourself or your gear for it to work? Because it seems like it could get in the way...

I would totally rock those if not for the price... but then, I do play in a synthpop band. And we did consider making stage costumes with Tron-esque light-up fiber optic pinstripe threads...

... but we're lazy and cheap, so neither option will happen anytime soon...

....why not just put glow in the dark tape around your existing cable?
