Interconnects and non-believers

For anyone who denies there are differences in cables, I have news for you.
There are vast differences.  I just switched interconnects between my CD transport (Cyrus) and DAC (Schiit Gumby), and the result was transformational.  Every possible parameter was improved: better definition, better soundstaging,  better bass, better depth etc.
I can’t understand how any audiophile with ears can deny the differences.  Is it delusion or dogma?

@ron1319 I feel there's some excitement building! Never had a Porsche or a V8. Had a V6 Capri in my youth, and an MGB even before that... my eyes turned to motorcycles, road and dirt. Lesson, if you want to get damaged, buy a motorcycle. :)

Cables: as long as I can hear what I expect, then I'm ok with that.

Sorry guys, when I use the word directional I’m referring to unshielded cables, interconnects, power cords, hdmi cables, etc. The shielding is a separate issue.

If there is not $12K worth of cable inside each component, why should we put $12K worth of cable between each component?
