DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?

Yes they do.  I’m not here to advocate for any particular brand but I’ve heard a lot and they do matter. High Fidelity reveal cables, Kubala Sosna Elation and Clarity Cable Natural. I’m having a listening session where all of them is doing a great job. I’ve had cables that were cheaper in my system but a nicely priced cable that matches your system is a must.  I’m not here to argue what I’m not hearing because I have a pretty good ear.  I’m enjoying these three brands today and each is presenting the music differently but very nicely. Those who say cables don’t matter. Get your ears checked.  I have a system that’s worth about 30 to 35k retail.  Now all of these brands are above 1k and up but they really are performing! What are your thoughts.

"...you jump right into a discussion after being away/asleep for a few weeks with a simple +1."

According to these few posts, mapman wins. Not even a word, much less twenty.

Some people just don’t have systems where it’s worth it. Some do. Putting high priced cables on low end systems don’t work. Your systems have to be resolving for it to matter.  Some people don’t have the hearing or the proper reference point.

I too enjoy Prof's posts. His discourse is cerebral and pointedly, unabashedly down the fence, if people take the time to read understand what has been written. I do not see any insults in the posts that require such vehement, even venomous responses.

Everyone has a right to express his/her opinions, but this is not the forum for nastiness. I have had my share for expressing my opinion, and I'd probably expect more from certain quarters.
