Are manufacturer AC cables good enough?


I have two PS Audio AC3 and two Pangea AC 14 cables I don't use.  My thinking is that Ayre wouldn't supply cables that are inadequate for their components.  Is that thinking flawed?

I thought I really liked my cables and cords...do I have to measure them on that $11,000 machine like Gene's to make sure I like them? that's way more than my cables cost...
I made the claim that SR and others claim to do double blind tests but none of them to my knowledge had done a properly administered double blind test in public, i.e. one where the process and results could be verified and validated by others. SR I am quite sure never has. Ted (due to his public persona) has been challenged to do it many times. He has never followed through.
"...even a very strong gut feeling......That is what they call pseudo skepticism."
No, that is what they call diarrhea.

So what? Who cares?

I've been a participant in a few double-blind listening tests. They were interesting. The results were never intended for publication. Who cares? What really matters is the result of your own evaluations.

dbphd does.
