The Absolute Sound "review" of USB cable reads suspiciously like a press releaste


I mean c'mon—can't you even throw in a few according-to-the-manufacturer's?

Blah, blah, blah, blah......🤗


Just for the record, you have about 16,000 more "blah, blah, blahs" than I.  Perhaps I have a life beyond Audiogon?

Why do I care if you think my system sounds good. As long as I am pleased with it your opinion does not matter to me.It is there to please me not you.

Your broad pronouncements of what others should do seem presumptuous to me.  Rather than living in the world of "shoulds", I would recommend you try the realm of "ears on" experience and try some cables to hear the difference (or not) for yourself.  Experience trumps "theory", IME. 

I'm an engineer, and I would have sworn that all of this cable nonsense just shouldn't, just couldn't make a difference.  But sometimes when I have tried them there was absolutely no doubting the differences and the musical improvements in my system.  Reluctantly, I have put some serious money into wire, and my ears are glad I did.  That's my experience.  You just cannot beat trying something yourself, rather than simply accepting conventional wisdom.
