LittleFlashlight's hilarious YouTube video portrays audiophilia at its most extreme, er, light. The title, "Why Valhalla power cable is better than a woman" merely hints at the possibilities. LittleFlashlight has a bunch of videos up there, but "Woman" is the best of the ones I've seen.

Full video after the jump.

About The Audiophiliac

Ex movie theater projectionist Steve Guttenberg has more or less successfully hitched his future to home theater, but he still pines for the clickity-clack of 35 MM projectors and all the stale popcorn he could eat. Between projectionist gigs he worked as a high-end audio salesman for sixteen years, and produced records for an audiophile label. Oh, and one more thing, nothing annoys Steve more than being confused with the other Steve Guttenberg, the washed-up Police Academy actor. The wordsmith Guttenberg is a frequent contributor to a number of magazines and websites including Home Entertainment, Playback, and Ultimate AV. He is a member of the CNET Blog Network and is not an employee of CNET. Disclosure.
