@joshua43214 you make a lot of great points. Also sometimes it’s how the equipment, power cables, interconnects and speaker cables interact with each other. It’s all so an issue with personal preferences. If the cables enhance your listening experience then you like them. There was a guy that was a nasa engineer that made great cables. His cables had a great soundstage but extended the treble and had a bump in the the lower midrange and in some systems it was great. In other systems not so much. But to each his own
ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS
Is it just me or am I the only one that has had it with overly pushy audiophiles that push measurements as the end all be all. I’m not talking about healthy discussions on measurements but obnoxious ones that talk down to you because of the measurements of your system or equipment is not perfect for them? All cables and cords are snake oil to them if it doesn’t register on their meters? Am I the only that feels this way?

@kennyc love your spending above measurements analogy |
@2psyop you make great points. In terms of measurements and equipment matching. Sensible |
@kerrybh i agree you get what you pay for. I think there is a group of folks that like to show how much smarter they are when they get great sound without spending a lot of money. Which I think should be encouraged. However, don’t crap on other folks that do spend by challenging their intellectual ability and decision making. By doing things like saying they have confirmation bias and they are not hearing what they are hearing. That’s the part that’s crazy to me. |
@oddiofyl I definitely understand your points. |
