Do your ears deceive you?


If you think cables, interconnects or other wiring make a difference, yes they do. This is a long article so I won't post it here but will a link describing how blind testing results in correct guessing that is no more accurate than random chance. Enjoy.

Of course your ears can deceive you. Your mind can play tricks on what you "want to hear" as opposed to what is really being played. This will largely depend on your age and hearing, but no question about your mind playing tricks on what you "want" to hear.

On a side note, I have not changed any of the power cords nor I have spent extra $$ for speaker cables or interconnect upgrades. In case you are wondering, here is what I have:
