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.

I have not heard a system that sounded completely fleshed out, dynamic and richly layered with high resolution and harmonic accuracy unless truly great cables were used.  They might have sounded good, or pleasant or lively, but not enthralling.  I have relied heavily on Transparent and MIT over the years.  Other cables have been hit or miss, but MIT always delivers!!
I think that’s what is missing in this argument. Some people’s hearing is better than others. We have different rooms and tastes as well.  The recordings are different as well. But to tell all of us that all cables sound the same is just flat out crazy.  As far as the differences are concerned. Some cables have differences I like some have ones I don’t.
