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.

Because the cables are usually better.  How much better depends on what makes your ears happy and how much you willing to pay

If you look at the bodies of a Kia and Porsche or under the hoods of a Kia and a Porsche the differences will be obvious to any human with a brain . If you dress two cables of the same gauge and construction with the same fancy jackets and cut them open to look at you will not see the difference . So this luxury car comparison is strange .
