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.

At least certain statements of yours are true.
Quite so. Evidently, your proclaimed interest in "mutually agreed objective testing" was fiction, or part of a ruse.

The fiction or ruse as you indicate belongs to those who believe and/or state the impossible. You know, that YOU can hear an audible difference...
I never made that claim - I just agreed to participate in the "mutually agreed objective testing" that you said you’d pursue. As it turns out, you’re not interested in such a test, but only a rigged test that you seek to pursue privately.

@gdhal, just let me know if you ever have an interest in an objective listening test, such as a double-blind abx test that would be held in public - perhaps at an audio store or audiophile society meeting - and whose protocol could be discussed first here in public. It could be interesting, and we could get others to participate. After all, it was you who proposed the test in the first place.
