My point about listening remains accurate...I'm a professional listener as a live sound mixer and musician, which doesn't mean I have better hearing, it simply means that after decades of experience I know how and what to listen for. Not everybody can do this (or they haven't tried), which is good for me I suppose since I'm paid well for this stuff...a hifi geek who participates in "active" listening, meaning they spend the time to really focus their attention on music, develops a strong sense of what's right from the accumulated listening experience and simply messing around with the gear to produce personally quantifiable differences. That experience, tempered by personal taste, is what gives people expertise and separates them from the more casual listener...or another human with ears.
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.
