It's me he's referring to. I know it's apples to oranges but the Modwright/Oppo 205 combo is a CD player I used as a spinner.
I liked the sound with the less expensive cable but like it more with the more expensive one. I hate the whole cable game but I trust my ears and I'm not going to delay my satisfaction over a little bit of money.
The sound was much more robust with the streamer. It's not really a fair fight based on price but the ears want what they want.
To your question about whether or not my system sounded better over all, yes it did.
