AudioQuest DBS Field

Paulsax - depolarization into random state is called relaxation. Dependent on material it can take from relatively short time to a year. Some materials might be permanently polarized. They are called electrets. Electrets can be natural, like quartz or artificially made my melting material and cooling it in electrostatic field.

Great. Now explain just what its significance is with regard to an audio cable.

Science behind it is very complicated and many things can be affected. I will leave it to Cable companies.

The cable companies are good at coming up with new Bogey Men to make people afraid of and to offer talisman to keep those Bogey Men at bay.

But where they fall pathetically short is demonstrating that there's actually a problem to be dealt with in the first place.

And if they can't do that, then really all they're offering is marketing.

As for people who don't believe that cables make a difference and post on cable forum it reminds me story about deaf many who answered add for music teacher just to tell them they shouldn't count on him.

And much of the cable industry today reminds me of the peddlers of patent medicines back in the 18th century.

I have them but cannot attribute any sonic differences to them. I have never done any a/b testing with dbs on and off so hard to say. The cables do work just fine with dbs normally on however.

Gee yeah. Here's the sum total of Simply_q's participation on A-gon. If you comb through it closely enough, you may find one or two posts about grounding or power distribution. The rest are devoted to setting the rest of us straight in a cable discussion forum.

So what? What has any of that to do with anything I've said beside nothing at all?

Take it to the bank that he's never compared AQ with DBS on or off, which is what the OP asked for.

I wasn't responding directly to the OP. I was responding to claims posted about DBS. If you have any problems with anything I've said, then address what I've said instead of playing ad hominem games.
