Are manufacturer AC cables good enough?

"I don’t see much evidence that there are many here who are in your #3 group.    That’s because many of those who would pretend to belong to that group either dismiss mountains of evidence with a wave of the hand or - just as often - simply pretend that the evidence doesn’t exist."      Empty vessels make the most noise!     The source of their hubris: https://code.tutsplus.com/articles/do-you-suffer-from-the-dunning-kruger-effect--net-22227      Those with even a modicum of scientific understanding, realize how much remains, to be explored and proven.

turnbowm,

Thanks for the link. Pretty despicable behaviour, (no pun intended) from Ted Denney.

Seems to be an example of the unmasked face of a high rolling snake oil scam salesman who advocates ignorance and exploits marketing tricks such as expectation bias and suggestion.


Synergistic Research? The main synergy seems to be the way money is being syphoned off unsuspecting customers.

Kind of telling also how Gene’s struggling to get a decent online setup with his Audioholics channel whilst Ted’s driving around in his Ferrari. Didnt Noel Lee of Monster Cables also end up fabulously wealthy too?

Nothing new here.

If we fail to dispel this climate of ignorance maybe I’ll eventually get exasperated and start my own cable company. Should be easy enough to get hold of some high purity OFC cable wholesale from China and then design a flash sleeve and logo. Hmm, now what name shall I choose? How about one of the following, apologies if already taken:

Deus ex Machina (it’s all done by wires)
Give Them Enough Rope
Grot Cables
Money for Old Rope
Unobtainium Cables
Wire PlanetWire CosmosWired for Sound
Wired

kozka,

“That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” Christopher Hitchens.

That’s my mantra from now on. Unless I start my own business of course.

Then I will be on here arguing about giving the consumer free choice, insisting blind tests are irrelevant, and suggesting the influence of as of yet undetected particles and energy fields etc etc ad nauseum.

Next up, can current be distorted or noisy? 

"Hmm, now what name shall I choose?"

Money for nothing?

You may need to pay a small licensing fee, but it would be worth it. And, in case some here are correct, nobody could chase you because of false advertising.

All you naysayers and cable non-believers should learn that looks are important. Stop arguing. You buy your clothes for the way they look, too. Even if they are just as warm as those ugly and cheap ones. So, what is the big deal with people paying money for prettier cables that may do the same job?

Bigger deal is buying it from the man who could post those things on facebook. That is when some would find a wire hanger sufficient.

Repeating roman precept of law in a dialogue between deafs dont make any progress possible...

Experiments dont  necessarily need an evidence to begin with....Only dialogue between donkeys or lawyers and accountants need this kind of evidence called blinders or rules, pick the one you are pleased with....
