The Science of Cables

It seems to me that there is too little scientific, objective evidence for why cables sound the way they do. When I see discussions on cables, physical attributes are discussed; things like shielding, gauge, material, geometry, etc. and rarely are things like resistance, impedance, inductance, capacitance, etc. Why is this? Why aren’t cables discussed in terms of physical measurements very often?

Seems to me like that would increase the customer base. I know several “objectivist” that won’t accept any of your claims unless you have measurements and blind tests. If there were measurements that correlated to what you hear, I think more people would be interested in cables. 

I know cables are often system dependent but there are still many generalizations that can be made.

"Could you please do us all a big favour and take a peak at the following thread....

The OP spews nonsense. That is all there is to it. A sad waste of time.

Condescending and name calling are not really a substitute for knowledge. Knowledge can be defined as what’s left after you subtract out all the stuff you forgot since you went to school.

It is odd you say that because as that thread shows the response to using the method has been overwhelmingly positive ( and truth be known we have built cables in that manner and the change from a normal cable assembly is absolutely shocking ).Was hoping you would find this interesting and would comment on what you think is behind the very significant performance increases cited in the thread.
