kennyc,
You somehow forgot to list those who have tried, can afford, and then concluded it is not worth it at all.

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.

+1 @andy2 Generally speaking, the higher resolving/performance audio chain, the more you”ll hear differences between cables. After reading Iconoclast cables white papers describing what goes into the design of audio cables, I have a much better understand why some cables are expensive: https://www.iconoclastcable.com/story/ (I have no skin in the game with Iconoclast). I believe that if audio cable skeptics read these “scientific” white papers, they may soften/reevaluate their resistive position. I’m guessing that most audiophiles don’t like spending for relatively expensive audio cables including myself, but some/many have concluded that cables do make a substantial difference and use their pocketbook to elevate their systems - often grudgingly and often with spousal resistance. |
