James Randi vs. Anjou Pear - once and for all

Hi Shadorne, you just have to hear what I got. When I was using big expensive conventional amps, dielectric noise must have been there, only I could not hear it. That is because all conventional amps I have ever heard contribute too much noise themselves for any finer distortion to get through.

BTW It's not just me that have found naked wires do best. Speltz's magnet wire has quite the following.

by the way, i returned the anjou pear interconnect to the manufacturer.

I must say that I cannot understand how someone who says all cables sound alike picks cables.

Muralman1, the Mikro-Omega top interconnects have been using very thin ribbons with a clear plastic surrounds for at least ten years. They sound very neutral. Omega Mikro firmly believes in as little insulation as possible. The were the originators of ribbon power cords. They also strongly believe in designing with awareness of the direction of the wire or ribbon draw.

I use Brystons cable loom for the connections between the amps crossover and speakers. It was supplied all in. The rest is balanced star quad cable with high quality neutrik connectors. £50 for 3m pairs or blue jeans cables balanced also for about £20 for a metre pair. Probably 90% of the cost of each is connectors.

Why do I say cables make no difference? because there is no theoretical or experimental evidence to support any thing other than LCR shielding and earthing affecting the interface of two components via cable. In scientific process the onus on the pro-cable believers to provide evidence. Proof positive.

hi brizonbiovizier:

i would like to propose an experiment. unfortunately you and i are thousands of miles apart.

i would like to demonstrate that i can discern differences between two cables. remember, all it takes is one double blind test to disprove the null hypothesis.
