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.

If two products have like quality, durability, appearance and performance but one is more expensive than the other why is the cheaper one not the better value? This does not seem difficult to understand. 

What other parameters would one use to assess a products value compared to others? Again if as dynaquest4 stated they are of like quality, durability, appearance and performance.

@jmcmgrogan...thanks for the laughs!

Because quality, durability, appearance and performance is SUBJECTIVE. 

If YOU found two products have like quality, durability, appearance and performance but one is more expensive than the other, then the cheaper one is  better value.

This does not seem difficult to understand.

If I audition two components in my system and like the sound of both equally, I like how they look, both have a reputation for being of high quality and durability. But component A is $300 more than Component B. Which one represents the better value? For what reason(other than potential re-sale value further down the road if I decide to sell) would I choose to spend the extra $300?

Thats basic money management 101. We all do it in our normal lives whether it’s shopping for automobiles, groceries, audio, whatever.
