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.

@Taters, Audio shows are always sausage fests. It's fair to say there would be a higher than average percentage of single guys <40y.o attending, but I think the older crowd mostly have a happy spouse at home busy catching up with friends or a good book.
@Onhwy61, It sure can. A wise person once told me "you'll get there one day". But for the time being atleast, after work this nerdy hobby is the main game.

Jamnesta,

My local dealer host an audiophile meeting once a year. He calls it a wienerfest.

Every man should have a good hobby. Audio is ours. Some people drink drug chase women and gamble. We have our audio and most of our wives understand and give us our needed space. They shop we listen to audio. Anyway. Way off subject. Once you get to a certain point you got to have good cables and they are going to cost a little extra money. Lol.
