Who says cables don't make a difference?

Funny, after all these years, people still say things like "you wasted all that money on cables". 
There are still those who believe cables don't make a difference.
I once did marketing for a cable line I consider to be about the best-Stealth Audio Cables. 
One CES, I walked the rooms with the designer/owner, Serguei Timachev. He carried a pair of his then new Indra interconnects. Going from room to room he asked the room runners to replace their source to preamp IC with the Indra. There was not one that was not completely flabbergasted and said that the Indras blew away what they were using. That was the skyrocketing of Indra and Stealth. The Indra became one of the best reviewed cables ever.
Serguei now makes the Sakra-an IC that blows away the Indra!
I don't understand why some still do not value cables as much as I.

speedbump6,

 "...scientific testing isn’t done to prove a personal theory, it’s done to prove the facts"


"Hypothesis" is the word you were looking for. At the same time, "testing", not "proving" would seem much more dignified in the press.

Now if only someone had some independent double blind tests that compared competent and expensive cables ...hmm... 10's of manufacturers, not one public test to promote their wares. Weird huh dude?

I’m definitely a BELIEVER in cables!!

When disconnected, the sound is dull, lifeless, practically non-existent!!

when I reconnect them, the DIFFERENCE is IMMEDIATE!!

So count me IN on the cable wars!!

Nope david, he just acted exactly like you. Also, as stated before... no one feels inadequate around you. That's just your ego talking (again).

Nope, you totally feel inadequate and whatshisname ...totally inadequate. Ditto for speedbump. Can't resist jumping en-mass onto my posts in some weird need for street cred or something, but alas, same tired arguments, or really lack thereof ... my ears! my ears! my ears! ... you guys make me laugh. You really are a hoot.
