Do Audiophile Cables Matter? Here's PROOF!


I seriously doubt that this will make any difference to the naysayers. But here it is.

So Danny doesn’t know what he’s talking about suddenly?  I don’t think it explains all the what’s and why’s, but does represent an example that cables can and do make a difference. There is a video I’ve posted a few times, even on one of genes videos that show a definite measured difference before and after a power conditioner by Puritan was added. Major difference in the measurements, something that gene has disputed and claimed to prove with measurements of his own. measurements don’t always show what the presenter claims they do, and ocd guy was using some of genes own type of measurements. Not one person ever responded to or had an answer to that video, which is rather unusual for that sight. They’re usually very vocal about how you didn’t do a blind test right, or the stars were out of alignment and therefore the results invalid.
Yet another thread on the merits of components. 
In the final analysis, the EARS have it. 
Audio is Alchemy...it all depends on so many factors;  the equipment, room, speakers, local power quality, relative humidity, emotional state etc...  Best advice is to try before you buy and keep both the emotional and technical bias out of your decision making.  If you achieve your audio goal then enjoy!  No need to adhere to someone else’s biased ideas of great audio.  Trust yourself and use only a few favorite recordings to finalize your decisions.  If you find yourself putting on more and more music just to hear how great it will sound on your rig, then you’ve probably nailed it.
