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.

"Try using high end cables as coat hangers...very difficult."

My problem with high-end cables (that would be anything that did not come with a component, although even those may be high-end) is that they are too much like coat hangers. They tend to be hard to bend and therefore inconvenient.
I'll have to agree with Doug Schroeder of Dagogo and Mike Powell of Verastarr cables that choice of cables will make or break a system.  I'm definitely learning that.
