why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable

Should cable manufacturers consider introducing a new line of cables for homeless people? Fuses for homeless people too.

... the protocol first be discussed in private

This looks like your $25,000 hustle all over again. No thanks. If you want to discuss arranging an honest listening test, let's discuss it here. I have nothing to hide.

^ Unable to discuss anything cleeds as my posts get deleted. Sorry. Do as you will and/or believe as you like.

these discussions should just stop. Cables make major difference is systems depending the system itself .. higher resolution systems can benefit from higher end cables. I have heard the change countless times when I was in the business years ago. So these were not cables I bought so I needed to hear a difference. When the know it all post comes in "snake oil etc etc" "audiofools" .. my first thought it they do not really listen listen to their system

>>>>I suppose you could say it’s healthy to have a difference of opinion or have some kind of legitimate counter-argument from skeptics but I’m afraid these are not real debates. In fact many if these threads are started as a joke. Isn’t it obvious?  The “Skeptics” are almost always little scamps who are in it strictly for the laughs and who enjoy teasing the audiophiles. It’s really as simple as that. Like cats teasing a dog. Isn’t it obvious? 😳
