Do I have biases? Of course we all do. The question is how can I figure out is it my bias or is it something else. I've already tried the , is this cable better? Is this DAC better? Game. I found out I couldn't tell humpty from dumpty. So yes diving into all this about how electricity works doesn't really confirm my bias it confirms I let my bias control me for to long.

djones51 No. It’s old stuff. The reasons can be found in a marketing 101 course. The more I read about "electricity" the more satisfied i am with my basic cables. Yeah, sure. You my friend are what we call around these parts a pseudo skeptic. No offense intended. 😬 |
Let me tell you about leaning. Most people, not everyone, has forgotten what they were taught in school a very Long time ago. And most of what you’re taught you actually never have to use on the job anyway. So you forget it super-fast. In the end, unless you have an overriding reason to learn some new body of knowledge you’re pretty much stuck with, how can I say it, nothing! Knowledge is defined as what’s left after you subtract everything you forget. 😳 |

Unfortunately, gentle readers, we are no closer to the answer than when we started. Perhaps it really wasn’t a simple question after all. None of the evidence presented by anyone, including supposed experts, explains why the conductor influences the sound. We know that silver is more conductive than copper but often copper sounds better. It all depends. We also presume that oxygen-free copper and long crystal copper And high purity copper and silver generally sounds better than ordinary lamp cord, no? And that all cables sound better in one direction vs the other direction. This is not some new tangled theory, folks. And I did not fall off the turnip truck yesterday. Something must be traveling inside the conductor, gentle readers. But what? 😳 Current? Then how can current be affected by vibration or the physical asymmetry of the Wire? Capish? |
