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 it all sounded the same, we'd have stopped with Edison's phonograph. Reductio ad absurdum.

The salient point is that everything interacts. To deny otherwise is counterintuitive. Some are more sensitive to some interactions than others. 

Some need to [and can afford to] drive the newest/flashiest/everything-est and others are content to just have really good sound.

Soto voce:
The problems here are "10,000 posters" who prattle on repeatedly with no substantiated examples or proof and those who steadfastly maintain "does not happen with my level of equipment"

I wish this forum had a banish flag so "10,000 posters" could neither read or respond for 30 days after a given number of serious posters give them a thumbs-down.

I’m afraid taters can’t answer you. It appears he went to the big T Bar Coral in the sky, you know, the one for exiled tongue in cheek thread starters.

everyone knows some have the ability to see fine print others cannot. everyone knows some can taste ingredients others can’t detect. some minds solve puzzles faster than others. there are varying levels of skill and ability in all endeavors . if you have an ability I do not possess I will not declare you wrong. eyes, noses, tongues, minds, hands, feet, and hearts come in varying capabilities. why would anyone purport all ears to function identically?
