As I have posted numerous times before, I have done literally hundreds of blind tests, and had people that worked with me trying to do their best to trip me up. That said, if there was any change in equipment that did make a difference, I identified it well over 90% of the time. I have no fear of blind testing, and I don't think any other audiophiles have any fear of it either. I do think the ABX'ers are afraid that we will try it and realize that they were more full of it than a Christmas turkey. If you really believe that you can't hear these things, then get another hobby. Audio is for people who can hear. Others can play with trains or take up gardening.
We know that DBTs are pointless, worthless, and "prove" nothing. What else is it we need to know.?

After so many things sayed what to say more? I subscribe to the "wild bunch" that CAN hear differences between cables(and other stuff too). Can you handle it?
Dopogue - why? Twl claims he can deliver repeatable results (90% of the time) with DBT. The point would be that a measurement can be taken (a human audition) to determine sonic performance. That has worth - now Twl (or anyone at this level of repeatablity) can serve as a standard. It also proves there are differences in cables.

Being a newbee to Agon, I enter this thread with trepidation. I'm not seeking to stoke a flame fest! And while it's apparent that this topic has been discussed before, if the vets wouldn't mind weighing in I could learn something (which I frequently do in this outstanding forum).

If you THINK that some wires sound better than others, then they do...for you. Maybe not for me, or anyone else, but why should you care?
