Interesting video on cables

Gentlemen - cables certainly make a difference.

The purpose of a cable is to transmit a signal while causing the least harm. Or, stated another way - with the highest fidelity.

Technically, how do cable transfer the signals? Explaining the many parts of a well designed and constructed cable requires a good technical understanding of electricity, metallurgy, dielectrics, electro-magnetics and physics. Each cable design and construction becomes critical for premium performance.

With a great system, set up in a treated room to perform optimally - it's easy to hear differences between cables.

Outside of all the measurements it comes down to what folks hear and in my system at least cables have made a difference.  There are many other folks here who would make the same claim.

Booyah!!!  Well said and goodonya!

I have an MA8900 integrated, the Denafrips Pontus II 12th Anniversary, the speaker cables are Vogue Audio Silver Strand cables, OSD Aurum power cables for the DAC and the integrated and Fritz Rev 7 SE speakers sitting on 24” sand filled speaker stands.

@jastralfu , all the trouble with cables, streamers and whatever else rabbit holes for this dinky lil speaker?? (that a guy goofed with in his garage)...Get a higher resolving/more substantial speaker with some real engineering dude.

Here are some better things in a similar price bracket.

Mofi Sourcepoint 10

Yamaha NS-2000A

JBL HDI 3800

KEF R11Meta

etc

@deep_333 I’m not quite sure how to respond to your advice.  I don’t think I can take it seriously if you think that the Fritz stand mounts (I refer to them this way cause at their size they really aren’t bookshelf speakers) are dinky lil speakers goofed with by some guy in his garage.  Fritz speakers are well respected by many on this site and have been well received/reviewed.  He’s not just some guy tinkering in his garage.  Personally, I would put them up against many speakers at twice the price and that’s not because I own them but because they are that good.  They may not be my end game speakers, but whenever I have gone to listen to something that might be a replacement (Focal, Fyne, B&W, Sonus Faber) I always leave thinking the speaker I just heard might sound different but not better and probably not worth it at twice the price.  I also use stand mounts rather than floor standers due to space constraints, so, even if I agreed with you, the speakers you recommend are entirely too large for my listening space. 

There is a special hell for audio cable curmudgeons, and to judge by the audiophile forums they are burning in it all the time.
