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.

geoffkait - Do you really think companies who manufacture an entire range of HDMI cables like Audioquest are perpetrating a hoax?

No. They are perpetrating a business, to make money. Hel-loo!
Settle down, Calvin, we’re talking about audio. HDMI cables carry audio and video signals. Besides, as I pointed out, there’s a broader issue here.

>>>>Business doesn’t equal hoax, Einstein. Your logic is all messed up. Companies make products at various prices points to appeal to a wider range of budgets and performance. You know, like Toyota and Mercedes Benz and Samsung TV. Duh! 😛
