Not so fast, grasshopper....just kidding...maybe the cables I am trying will sound both good AND measure well :) - - -  still evaluating...based on the sound btw...not measurements...
Dudes like Dltech are perfect examples of what I keep saying all along in this thread: #measurementmorons will never buy any cables regardless of what measurements and technical details you provide for them. It’s a lost cause. A lose / lose proposition.
When someone comes onto a thread and does nothing but casually toss out irrelevant personal slights while bringing nothing to the conversation, you gotta wonder what they are compensating for? Do people over 18 still use hashtags?

Very funny! And what exactly did YOU bring to this discussion? This?

The article is meant to be impressive, but technically is super weak, but if it suits what you want to believe, it must be true. Same people who going gaga for Galen, pun intended, also go gaga for Ted, who comparatively, probably barely knows what a cable is. Can't have it both ways boys and girls.
dletch2, When an engineer/designer has put out boatloads of technical information, I do not need to do a highly technical review. I only need point to it. 

I do not think you understand the audiophile community well, at least beyond a cursory comparison. You strike me as one of the objectivist types, and lump any cable enthusiasts together without much sophistication. Were you more informed, you would know that those who would listen to Galen would most likely not be very impressed by Ted's work. 

Why don't you share what cables you have compared in sets? Please list your system from first power cord through to speakers, and preferably present images for us. Please, go ahead and start a Virtual System here, complete with all details. Thank you.
