Not surprising when it's a cable made to hit a low price point and look good to attract buyers. It's not designed based on how it sounds. Danny picked 8 out of 10, which also shows that most people don't "need" to spend a lot on cables. He even says something like, I wish I had concentrated on trying to tell the difference rather than enjoying the music, then I would have known. So if we're just listening to music, which is what we're supposed to be doing, we should enjoy and not try to find fault.

Curious on your thoughts of this video. Thanks

I tried these cables and thought they sounded quite good. I compared them to a few other cables including some that were considerably more expensive (Iconoclast series 2 SPTPC) and it wasn't until I tried Kimber Select KS-3035 that I found something I liked better. I think the GR-Research cable is quite the bargain. |
My issue with this test is the vast difference in cable gauges. 16 vs what appears to be much larger. I would think you would want to match gauges and then try the test. If the GR cable is say 10 gauge then a ofc stranded cable of same gauge and length should be used,in my opinion. I believe the results would be quite different.

I agree @htaddict. Comparing a $500 to a $2000 cable is more interesting to me and probably more "fair" but the idea is to see if he could choose his own cable vs a cheap one. I think it says more about the cheap cable than it does about his own cables. |
