DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?

Yes they do.  I’m not here to advocate for any particular brand but I’ve heard a lot and they do matter. High Fidelity reveal cables, Kubala Sosna Elation and Clarity Cable Natural. I’m having a listening session where all of them is doing a great job. I’ve had cables that were cheaper in my system but a nicely priced cable that matches your system is a must.  I’m not here to argue what I’m not hearing because I have a pretty good ear.  I’m enjoying these three brands today and each is presenting the music differently but very nicely. Those who say cables don’t matter. Get your ears checked.  I have a system that’s worth about 30 to 35k retail.  Now all of these brands are above 1k and up but they really are performing! What are your thoughts.

Now the last 6 posts are sensible. I got the best components and speakers I could get and now I’m using the cabling for small tweaking.  Been blesses to get the right mix that I have now. Geokaffit no harm no foul.  You been posting goofy for a while.  Lol.  Enjoy your systems everyone.  If you use chicken wire, generic Cable or Bentley Cable. As long as you are happy.

Calvin, I’m fairly certain that’s the worst spelling of my name I’ve ever seen. Did you catch your fingers in a meat grinder? Are you high? Lol

It’s awful decent if you to hope everyone is happy, one assumes even the ones who have crap cables and/or can’t hear as good as you. What a guy!

Prof,
" Someone with the relevant expertise in EE could certainly predict to a significant degree what you hear"... Maybe (at best)
Bigkidz,
" I can get the same or better results much cheaper by changing resistors, capacitors or adding a simple filter choke to a component(s)"... That has been my experience as well. That stated IMHO IC's, SC's, PC's, are still a very important part of the overall result.
