why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable

I have tried expensive cables and one's moderately priced. I would say there were some differences but I can't actually say the expensive cables were better. IMHO I believe a lot of people buy expensive cables because they don't actual trust their ears and are afraid of making a mistake. They figure the expensive cables are better for the fact they cost more. If you have a difference of opinion or share the same thoughts, I would like to hear about it.

Elizabeth is obviously very emotional right now.  You missed the tongue in cheek aspect of my post apparently?  That being said, anyone should be able to pursue anything they please.  I was simply riffing on the analogy GK mentioned.  It was sarcastic humor with a thread of truth perhaps...certainly not a treatise or anything worth publishing.  Relax, take a bubble bath and put on some Perry Como for goodness sake!  Geeez

Something is wrong with dave_b. We don’t know what it is. But we suspect ye olde peaches and hamburgers syndrome.

Whatever you may think of high end cables that cost more than most high end electronics or speakers, the cable manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank. Fool an audiophile once, shame on him.  Fool him twice, shame on cable manufacturer. Fool him thrice, congratulations cable manufacturer.
