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.

You can always tell a pseudo skeptic on a crusade because he keeps telling you blind tests will be surprising, or prove there’s no difference between cables, or prove a super expensive cable is just as good as Radio Shack cable or Monster Cable. Another clue is they never do blind tests themselves. Blind tests are as vulnerable to test errors as any other kind of test. All pseudo skeptic arguments eventually lead to Blind Tests, the pinnacle of pseudo skeptic logic. 🙄
Geoffkait,

blind tests are how science is done. i worked in pharma marketing for 25 years. Your meds don’t make it to market without blind testing with control groups. 

The rest is superstition, demagoguery, snake oil ...

Good for you! What works in pharma stays in pharma. Don’t contaminate audio with your junk science. I like your hat.

calvinj,
I see you aren't done baiting people.  What a sweetheart.

Though you started a thread with a poor attitude and continued it, fortunately some have entered with an interest in honest conversation.
