So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...

edgewound is a musician. Explains a ton based on my experience with musicians especially those who play through amplification.

To some a little knowledge is a wonderful thing and to others a curse. Those who dont know what they dont know are a bane. 

So typical to call for the removal of comments you dont like, especially when these offensive comments are no worse that others that jumped from your keyboard moments earlier. 

Stay as long as you like edgewound, but perhaps you should quit while you are behind.

Apparently, some here just google up some equipment and think they are good enough.

$10K for 0.05% accuracy out to 1MHz

I suppose some people have the data to back up 0.05% is good enough to measure human hearing. I don’t, but if you post something, you need to back up your claims.

That is sufficiency accuracy for a cable in audio.

Again, a statement without evidence or proof.

Interesting how some can so readily believe in what they search on google. :-)

If you are unfamiliar with a topic, i.e. electronics manufacturing, then it is best to not comment. Nothing in audio is controlled to 0.05%. Not at the time of manufacturing, not over time, and not over temperature.  With a cable, the impact would be volume (resistance, 0.05% is inaudible), or a filter frequency (0.05% is inaudible). 

So yes, 0.05% is more than good enough for human hearing, or any practical manufacturing process.

Agilent is now Keysight for test instruments.

As they say, the criminal tends to come back at the scene of the crime. Or something like that. And yes, the pattern is unmistakable, different name or not. Sick dude

He keeps getting the boot and keeps coming back. It is truly a sad existence if all you have in life to keep busy is create multiple screen names on an audio hobbyist site, and relentlessly argue about stuff that doesn't really matter.

So yes, 0.05% is more than good enough for human hearing, or any practical manufacturing process.

So basically you just pulled some number out of a hat without anything to back up.  Kind of like a magician.  So much for being an objectivist :-)

A high school drop out could say what you said since it doesn't mean much.
