Most emotionally involving cables?

Argent, Most people use their cables as band aids to tune their systems tonal balance. That's no good as you will be constantly changing cables for the rest of your life after you change a component.

Well, you paid so much for your new component. You should want to hear what it does....not what it does not do and make cable changes to make it sound like you want it to.

My question is...why change components then???? The principle is to get a cable which has the least colorations so that it does not get in the way of the music. I know it does not exist yet but as I said the Audio Note cables do not really have much colorations. Thanks.

The reason the MIT's are so "emotionally involving" may have something to do with their cost. When you spend that much on cables, sound be damned, there is a certain degree of emotional connection. Things that make you and others (if they knew) question your sanity, a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I feel lucky, I got mine at a great price (still insane) and am happy in the fact that if a "giant killer" comes along at a fraction of the cost or even more for that matter, I can sell the MIT's without losing my tail. And that is always a stabling feeling in this hobby. Blbloom I concur.

I say MIT is most emotionally involving because I see more heated arguments on it than any other cable.
The most involving to me are the nordost valhalla/quattrofils because of their clarity and lack of grain. Lots of good cables out there.

The cable thing goes on - I changed everything to Alpha Core Micro Purl interconnects and speaker cable several months ago and really just to say that it might balance the sound and bring it to me. Did it - I tell myself yes because I listen to the music more - less to the system and know I have quality cables bringing it to me all in the same nature whatever that means. It is a great feeling.

John 1, one of the problems with the net is when you are making a subtle joke, no one gets it. I got it, by the way. Those members of "the cable of the month club" always get really emotional about their new find too. I usually hate my cables. I resent how they get in the way both physically and sonically. I guess what Kevint is looking for is a cable that gets out of the way of the music - me too.
