DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
@stevecham You say cables matter. That's fine. Some of us would like to hear your reasoning so we can see another viewpoint. However if you read the subject of this thread "DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?" there is no for or against argument in question. We are all free to discuss the pro's and con's, but don't be condescending and call poster's who may not agree with you, "naysayers". You haven't justified yourself in your arguments. You have simply jumped on the name calling bandwagon. |

I WANT to believe in magic, really I do.” >>>>Typical beginner pseudo skeptic mistake. Accusing the other side of believing in UFOs, ghosts, etc. As if pseudo skeptics are not crazy or deluded. 😛 ganainm then wrote, “That seems to be the last of what I have to offer this thread, thanks for the many well intentioned thoughtful and funny posters of all mind sets.

kosst_amojan I think cables make a difference, but I think beyond a point it’s more about stoking the users ego, vanity, and delusions than achieving higher quality audio. If you NEED a $10,000 interconnect cable to get what you’re looking for, to ADD the color you’re seeking (or your purely opinionated lack of), I think you should be reevaluating your choices of components. >>>>Earth to Costco - nobody uses $10,000 interconnects. Well, maybe one or two. Anyone can come up with some ridiculous example. By the way, Is is stoking the ego or stroking the ego? I gather from your posts you’re a stroker. Let the witch hunt continue! |
ganainm ... the reason the burden of proof is not onthe sceptics is because of 150 years of Electrical Theory and Engineering not to mention the huge majority of actual unbiased blinded testing. If that stuff means nothing to you, well there really isn't a discussion to be had ...This is a hobbyist group, so there's actually no "burden of proof" on anyone here. No one in this group owes you anything. But since you bring up "actual unbiased testing," please do tell us about those tests. Who designed them, who conducted them, who participated? Please also tell us about what you call the the minority of tests where the results were not consistent with your beliefs. If you're not willing to share details, "well there really isn't a discussion to be had." |
