Your opinion on cable spending

Jayctoy: How does one "determine the cable that will match your system"? What happens if one cable selection upsets the balance that another cable selection in a different part of the system was able to achieve? How does one go about knowing which path to choose? Sean

Uppermidfi, great, nice to know you hear a difference. Great to know that a major advancement in sound reproduction is cable "technology". Who cares what other people think, right? You hear all those great improvements; I hear no difference. It's all the same. You're right, I'm right and so is my uncle. It's all a game, right? Strange, a dealer who sells some pretty decent brands told me how fed up he was with people coming in his store with all these fancy notions about cables. Why he confided in me, I don't know. Now my curiosity is really piqued and I would like to send in a cable believer to see if he'll go along with him also. What a game, eh. Ain't life grand? Come on, Happy Valentines Day.

pbb....in looking at your system, i am surprised you dont hear a differnce in cables.

have you ever auditioned mutlipe speaker cables/interconnects (ie had the opportunity to totally rewire your whole system with some well regarded cables ? $350 & up for interconnects and $750 and up for speaker cable)

if so..... and your system didnt sounder different to you( for the better or for the worse), then something is more than likely amiss with your system or something else......

best regards,

"There are none so deaf as those who will not hear". I am deaf or else thick, it appears!

Speaker cables generally cost more so the 50/50 rule is not valid. If you spend $1500 on speaker cables then you will have $1000 left for i/c's which may be a couple of 1m pairs.
