Speaker Cable Suggestions

dynaquest4,
Clearly we have different opinions. So no point going forward with that discussion. You think cables should not make a difference (more nonsense) and I think cables do make a difference. I can say the same about your opinion, being biased. I have posted my system here, while you have not. I would like to know, what components are in your system? Now don't tell me that it does not make a difference, if I do not know your components. Cause, I feel, it does. If anything, your opinions on THIS forum are moot. You need to go to your brothers on avsforums.

Yep...we clearly do are on opposite poles of this issue.  My opinions are not biased because I have researched the science and believe it...and I have no financial interest in these products.  My point is the cables cannot make, induce, accentuate, instill, highlight, perform or any other active verb you can think of.  All they can provide is the prevention of interference from outside influences as they link the audio signal from component to component.  Inexpensive cabling does this quite nicely. Spending more is just silly.

My stereo system is Oppo-105D/Emotiva XPA-2/B&W 803s.  I could spend 1000% more and MAYBE achieve a subjective 5% improvement in overall SQ - for me, a stupid, wasteful, low value investment.  But it might LOOK cooler...there is that!

Oh, and I have KimberKable for the speakers; got them free with another deal. Wasn't  impressed with them over heavy guage zip cord.  Also got a set of six Wireworld RCA interconnects for 10 bucks (retail on Amazon $100 each).  Made no difference over the Monoprice set they replaced.

I do monitor AVS...and Audioholics.  Both groups encourage not wasting money on silly, ineffective cabling.

Oops....forgot to add the SVS SB13 Ultra sub to my system list above.  Got it a year old for half price.  Wonderful sub - Monoprice balanced cable.

That pretty much says it all. No bias there what so ever. Congratulations on reaching the top of the mountain. I used to think you had no credibility, now I am sure of it. Nothing wrong with those components per se, but to believe it cannot be improved upon by more than 5 percent by wisely spending a thousand percent more.....what a hoot. IMO they could be bested by spending the same amount, YMMV.

I hate to break it to you, but your statement is biased. It makes the assumption that science knows all there is to know about the human hearing mechanism. It also assumes that the only measurements that matter are the ones that we have the capability to make now. History is full of examples where this kind of thinking is proven absolutely wrong. The person that thinks they, or science, know everything there is to know about any subject is a fool.

Do you really know me well enough to post this personally offensive comment?Please try to stay on topic and not resort to personal comments when unable to usefully discuss the subject matter.  I know this might be difficult but that is what this forum is for.
