So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...
As a scientist can you tell us how science would go about creating test where we can " trust our ears"? If I were you I'd stop posting.  The more you post, the more you sound kind of ignorant.  
Using 2 different brands of interconnects?
As long as the budget for cables make sense with respect to the entire system.  If you spend $1000 for a interconnect but your entire system is at $1000, there is something wrong there.

OP,Can you list what you have in your system?  Cable costs should scale with the system cost.A 100$ interconnect may or may not be good enough depends on the existing components. 
NORDOST vs CARDAS USB cables
craig,I was wondering if you could list your system equipment.  I assume in order to tell the difference in USB cables, one needs to have a fair highly resolving system.

Here is an concrete example why if you believe in equation, you're can be so wrong.  Let's take an example of silver vs. copper.  We all know silver sounds brighter compared to copper.  But it's not so obvious if you believe in the equation.  See ...

Everything a human can hear can be measured, no ifs, ands or buts. There is no equivocation,  no in principle, it's a simple fact. Plain and simple everything we hear is a physical phenomena transferred via the air around us. Something tell...

Everything a human is capable of hearing can be measured. Maybe the most naive statement in audio.  The objectivists are starting to show how gullible their reasonings are.

Not everything can be counted, counts. Not everything that counts, can be counted.You can’t judge a speaker by just the freq. response graph. Same for cables.Yes, if there are some obvious anomaly in the freq. response, then sure you can say it’s ...

Look at all that chest puffing, but not an argument among the four of you. That is rather telling. Hm... interesting.  Any data from you yet?By the way, equations are not data.

"Lies, damned lies, and equations."

At least the author uses science and math. I didn’t realize how an objectivist can be fooled so easily. Just throw around some fancy equations and they will just bend over.

Are you a preacher?

Even $8K he has not justified. A quick search shows $10K for 0.05% accuracy out to 1MHz. OK, some misinformation here.  You claimed your LCR meter can measure up to  "0.05%" of accuracy.  How does that equate to .004dB at 20MHz?  Seems like a s...

So yes, 0.05% is more than good enough for human hearing, or any practical manufacturing process. So basically you just pulled some number out of a hat without anything to back up.  Kind of like a magician.  So much for being an objectivist :-)...

In my day job, we wouldn’t trust any equipment. We actually have to characterize equipment to make sure they measure what they advertise.Apparently, some here just google up some equipment and think they are good enough. $10K for 0.05% accuracy ou...
