why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable

Gdhal, "Untrue, to the extent there is any audible distinction a human can detect with the naked ear."

This is not true there is research to suggest that while our ears may not have responses noted in the brain of anything over 16k Hz, in noting the pleasure center of the brain on high fidelity recording when the highs above 16k are removed pleasure drops sharply.

Apparently there are other means by which the brain becomes aware.

But in reality no one is obligated to prove they hear differences in cables. You never are asked to prove that you don't hear a difference.

I might add that nobody ever asks why people buy expensive cars, wines, tvs, or steaks. What are you objective measures for these?

I don't give two hoots what you like.

I ask my wife all the time why she buys expensive things?  🙂

What I stated is untrue is Geoff's statement that all manufactured wire is directional.

Note the operative word *all*.

If you still believe my statement is untrue, perhaps you and I can prove it together offline.

Looks like gdhal is playing his silly little game again. Trolling for dollars with fake blind test scam. 😎
