Cables more hype than value?

I have Shorter and Nascimento (yauarete), but no Shorter with Nascimento. I had no idea I had so much latin stuff until you came along. eerrr.... thanks????

Let us pray that 'early' shorter is not anything like 'current' shorter!

The mere mortal cables I mentioned, I was asking can you ID them when they are compared to each other? Or does a guru cable have to be involved?

My stance on wire has not changed. I will argue up until folks start getting nasty, then I stop. It's possible have fun and be serious and speak the truth, all at the same time. However the million dollar thingy is very compelling. Human pride and greed being what it is.

I don't have 'native dancer' but I have Nana Vasconcelos doing 'Rain Dance'

I better get rid of this stuff before someone finds out, and labels me 'progressive' aaaaaiiiiiieeeeeeeee.

Cheers

What cables have you guys used in your systems?

I have several friends in the audio world who believe as you do, and have brought over Audioquest, Cardas, and Nordost cables. They all claim to have heard huge differences in my system, before and after. I couldn't tell the difference. Of course I wasn't expecting any differences, they all were. Funny how that worked out.

So we are all the same, we all hear what we choose to beleive. Believe you will hear differences, and you will hear differences. Believe that you will not hear differences, and you will not hear differences.

****Let us pray that 'early' shorter is not anything like 'current' shorter!****

I thought you said (in a different thread) that you had some early Shorter? So, you should know the answer; even if I don't agree with your implication.

****The mere mortal cables I mentioned, I was asking can you ID them when they are compared to each other? Or does a guru cable have to be involved?****

No, guru cable does not have to be involved. Just the two cheapos.

Irv, ****As for the rest of your post, it is completely analogous to the discussion of spirituality when discussing evolution****

We actually agree on something. But, the mistake that evolutionists make is believing that evolution precludes creationism. Clearly, this is not the place to have THAT debate, but I agree the analogy is there.

You may find this to be interesting reading; even if, as I suspect, you will vehemently disagree. I think it illustrates aspects of this debate perfectly.
