Let's talk power cords

@atmosphere-thinking more about the diode effect analogous to a fuzz pedal, what if the effect was much more subtle than a fuzz pedal yet still perceptible to the human auditory system?  Possible? Could it be measured, and if not with current technology, still be audible?  This is the part that I find truly fascinating: that we may be able to hear very subtle differences that we have yet to measure accurately enough or even account for.

I told @atmasphere:

If you think Geoff is a troll, please alert the moderators.

He answered:

I have on many occasions. And for things like this ...

Your beef is really with the moderators, Ralph. Geoff seems to be playing by the rules here.

It is a a fact that you will hear an improvement with a cable in a better sound system. By the way, not only the cable are important but also speaker binding post, a bad one would shrink and distorted the sound and a good one would make the music bloom.  I just do the change and wow !

audiosens"It is a a fact that you will hear an improvement with a cable in a better sound system"

Of course yes that is a completely factual statement as many here on the Audiogon forums can readily attest based on first hand experience with they're Music Reproduction Systems but equally true is that there are "naysayers" hear who believe as a matter of faith that such an audible difference is impossible so even though they have no proofs of they're own they often demand proofs from others it is most unusual! As if that is not alone enough to "boggle" the mind these same "naysayers" will claim to have science on they're side and that you are engaged in a fraud or snake oil.
