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.

I'm open minded to anything

That is the funniest line I've seen on any forum all year!
Yep, as long as it is designed by Matthew Bond, lol!!
I envy those who spend little on cables, not being able to hear differences in sound quality between various offerings.
Although it's true that the prices on many cables are obscenely inflated, and that there's plenty of hype to around, it's also true that cables do make a significant difference. I'm obviously a believer but that comes from having done a lot of listening and owning a lot of cables. It's also true that there are ethical cable makers who offer game changing products at relatively reasonable prices. Some of these can and do sound 'better' than those costing far more.
Yup funny. We think we are the voice of reason. Lol. Just like I thought. Lol
"Voice of Reason...", yup, the voices in my head made me choose cables that gave me the sound i wanted that weren't designed by MB......
I'm afraid it's not that easy. I have heard systems that did not reveal differences in cables. Who knows why? It's not a done deal that cable X will outperform cable Y even with all our convictions. C'est la vie! ;-)
