Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this?

I've been experimenting with different cables between components. Nothing sounds right since trying to improve sound with new mix of cables. There is no bass and boring, highs are okay but life is gone from system. So I flipped everything back the way it was still sound horrible. Ran everything 24/7 for a couple days still no go. Let it run a couple more days dynamics are back and bass is full big and has tone again and enjoyable to listen to. Can someone tell me why this happens. I've also moved just speaker cables around without unhooking them and seen this happen, I don't get it.

Forgetting science versus the human ear discussions ...
I don't mean to blame you, but that's part of the problem. There is no genuine "science versus the human ear discussion," because there is no conflict between science and what we hear. The two are inherently linked. That sometimes it's difficult to account for what we hear is not an indicator of any conflict, other than that invented for purposes of debate.

Real scientists probe for real answers.

Sorry for a harsh word "morons". Because that I put it in quotes!

Anyway, IMHO to make a real serious measuring analysis in audio you
have to have a deep knowledge not just in electronics but in psychoanalytic.
But 99% of audiophiles who try to use these kind of theories don’t have any of required knowledge.

To what "theories" do you refer? What knowledge is "required?"

Given your insistence on applying science, I have to ask: How did you arrive at your "99%" calculation?

And given your distaste for audiophile "morons" and "fanatics," will you please tell us what you hope your claims will accomplish here?

Because every second person on any audio forum likes to talk about science and measurements.
But how many people here have any education in electronics, physics and psychoanalytic?
Most of they didn’t study out of these disciplines.
Unlike most of people here, I have BSc in electronics. But I don’t have enough knowledge to enplane most process in audio scientifically.
More to discover
