32 pairs of speaker and RCA cables measured and listened to


I am not sure if this has been posted here before, but this is pretty interesting. 

These guys measured and (blind) listened to, 32 pairs of RCA cables and speaker cables. And found both measurable and audible differences.

@dekay ....I thought that it was decided that, if one didn't have the gribenes for exotica cables that welding cables would do Just Fine.....🤨

So....Now....

All the cassettes spouse and I have dragged about with us for Decades....

....have become...

'Vinta'ge"......?!

When did This occur?  Who's responsible for This 'obscurity'?

" I can see the pyres for the fires already..."

....just another foray by The Infidelity Fiends....I knew it.....callous crackpots....🤬

Jerry:

I found a pair of spare IC's that I made years ago with cheap low metal mass Radio Shack RCA's and either Chimera Labs or Vampire magnet wire (not certain which).

They were hanging behind a painting in the hallway.

Definitely better sounding than the crusty cables from the 1980's.

FF and RW is spotty on the street find cassette deck and not wanting to get back into a good deck (my last one was a  Nakamichi 700ZXL) I may look for a refurbished Walkman or something small like that to use with the mini system @ the computer.

Most of the old music on these is new to me (currently listening to SADE - Diamond Life).

Correction...

My deck was a 700ZXE (not ZXL).

In the 70's/80's I had numerous Nak's (250 for the car, 550, 600  and the less expensive 700 model).

No surprise here, cables sound different. 

The deniers either can’t hear well or have non resolving stereos.

 

The intellectually lazy comeback that we always get from the folks who will believe anything.
