Blue Jeans Cable Sound Good???


When people say Blue Jeans cables sound good.... what are they comparing them to?

Because the pair I just got sound pretty crappy....  compared to AQ King Cobra XLR / Emotiva XLR

Not trying to troll... I'm serious. What are these being compared to? Sounds like a thick layer of distortion hanging over my speakers...

This just goes to show you that everyone has a different system which reacts differently to cables.  For example, I never heard an Audioguest cable sound bright in my system or a few others.  Same with some of the other comments above about different cables.  I particularly have not heard dramatic changes with different cables.  I normally hear thicker or thinner mid-range, top end is either open or not as open sounding, bass has always seemed to sound close enough with most cables that I would not feel the change was dramatic.  Living in the NYC area with many audio clubs, and knowing Fremer I have heard and tried many cables over the years.  So no cable to my ears has been a game changer but different flavors of sound in the systems I have compared them in.  These are just my experiences and opinions though.  I do find and have posted this many times that swapping out a cap or resistors in specific areas of a component makes more of a difference in what I am hearing versus any cable change.  I even build a preamp where you can rotate with a selector switch the output resistors on the preamp to hear the differences they make.


Happy Listening.
