If the Meridian approach was a smashing commercial success, I guess it would be more popular among manufacturers. Market forces, whatever they may be, seem to dictate otherwise. I got a kick out of your analogy with the fashion industry - perhaps I have more in common with my wife than I thought...
A hard look at the effect of cables
Hey guys
A fellow EE audionut directed me to these articles and I thought some of you might be very interested to read them too. Two arguably qualified engineers went through the pains to take high quality measurements of the effect of cables and their interation with a complex electrical load, such as a full range loudspeaker, and with a complex signal, such as music. The link below is to the final installment but be sure to also read parts 4 and 5 very carefully. Part 5's Figures 6.8 and 6.9 are really amazing. I had never seen such measurements and they definitely seem to correlate with what we hear. The cables lengths are longer than normal but I think the point is well made. Hope you enjoy this read as much as I did.
