Dude, if you need someone to tell you it's ok to spend lots of your money on wires, I am not that guy. I, however, can hear a difference, and do spend quite alot on wires, etc. If you hear a difference, really hear a difference, it shouldnt matter what anyone else thinks. I hear it, and I could care less whether anyone else does. True, there are some areas of our hobby that seem "vodoo" even to old, salty audiophiles, but in all cases, you should use your ears. IF you cant hear it, to me anyway, it's not worth spending the money to keep up with the Jones(er)s.
"The Audio Critic" B.S. or what?
Has anyone ever heard of this magazine? In a nutshell, their premise is that audiophiles are ridiculous. They claim that all high-end equipment is marketed to audio magazines and their foolish readers. One particular area they sounded off about was cable and interconnect theory. They claim that spending hundreds and even thousands of dollars for cables is a joke and is a total waste of money. They claim that companies like Kimber are selling us a bunch of "snake oil." I just breezed through a copy and now it's got me wondering if we audiophiles are just masturbating each other with our concepts and discussion of "high-end" equipment and cables. Please tell me this is a bunch of sh*t. I'd like to think that we're getting at least a bit of "high-end" for our hard-earned $$$$
