Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference?


Audioholics will be doing another video on this at 4pm (I assume Eastern), today. Rather than comment on it after the fact, some here might want to jump into the live comments thread? Anyway, in case that’s you, here’s the link:https://youtu.be/kR12Ttuxobs

Old chestnuts never die, they just return in the Eternal Cycle of Re-roasting....

Having both my wife and I brought to tears multiple times over the last two nights by music that we've played many times before on a system that had never elicited that response from us prior to changing only the speakers cables, for me, and for her, the answer is obviously yes, speakers cables make a difference...however, the magnitude varies.


Wow, for a boring topic that’s been beat to death and certainly does not deserve a single word more or a second of anyone’s time -- there are a lot of responses here. Did anyone post a comment at Audioholics? What kind of response did you get? (Because that was THE point of this OP. Not whether speaker cables made a difference. I didn't raise that question.)
Very good video thanks...

He said and demonstrated something i already guessed with my own cables experiment....Without measurement tough... There is difference but very minute one...

The room controls is a way more huge upgrade and like me he said that at the end...

One thing he does not experimented with, like me, is with minerals modifying the response of the cables...

I use my "golden plate" with herkimer diamond to a better balancing of the cable between dark and bright... With success....I even verify with many other minerals with each time a different response in audible effect... I can even describe the effect i related myself to 5 or 6 different minerals...At the end i setlle for my golden plate and quartz or herkimer diamond...

Those too much sensible to unorthodox experiment of this kind may call that a "reinforced placebo effect" presenting itself each time with a different audible effect if i change the minerals.... I dont give a damn.... 😁😁😁😊😊😊😎

But after my experiments i decided to never upgrade my actual cables only to balance them my way....It is very economical and very satisfying...
"I’ve owned mid priced Nordost, and I currently own Straightwire Virtuoso. I’ve never heard a difference between cables."

No, you did not say that (out loud). Ouch.
