Harley quote


Regarding two aftermarket power cables: "These differences in the shapes of the musical waveforms are far too small to see or measure with even the most sophisticated technology, yet we as listeners not only routinely discriminate such differences, we sometimes find musical meaning in these differences."

 Nonsense. Just because people claim to "routinely discriminate" differences doesn't mean it's true or they're right. Apparently many have witnessed UFOs but that doesn't mean they actually saw extraterrestrial visitors, does it? Some have seen/heard a deity speaking to them "routinely"; does that imply that they are surely communing with an unseen/unmeasurable spiritual force(s)? Can we not put a little more effort into confirmatory reality-testing first when "the most sophisticated technology" can find nothing in 2020? (Of course, speaker cables can measure differently as per here, here, even if not necessarily audible in many cases by the time we connect amp to speaker.)

A remarkable advance in loudspeaker technology has been sorely ignored by the audio press:

Thanks very interesting....
Blessings to you too Doug...despite our differences.  If I had as much gear as you I’d go bonkers trying to decide which was my favorite piece...yikes!
"So, is there any strong objection to my insistence that working with comparison of entire sets of cables is the best method of demonstrating their capacity to change systems?"
What will a set of cables for a receiver consist of?

"The objection that cables are hooked up to components should be seen as a moot point. Try listening without components, just cables."

Did you want to say...

It may simply be my taste, or lack of thereof, but those speakers were not that impressive to me. In fact, I was puzzled by all the praises they got at Capital Audio Fest 2019.
