Have not heard the term "proper jazz" before. Did not detect irony, either.
Im going to regret my cable question
Having read so many "do speaker cables matter" threads, reviews, etc., over the years I am going to open up this can of worms again. So here goes.
I would like some opinions on the pairing of my amp, speakers, and a possible upgrade of speaker cables. My kit consists of a Rotel Michi X3, S2 and Monitor Audio Gold 300 G5's.
Would anyone venture a suggestion on what might be a good fit, with a budget of no more than $1200 CND.
I currently have Audioquest Type 4 which are some years old by now. Im looking at AQ Rocket 33 or 44's but I am open to other brands.
Although I understand the "coat hangers work just as well" theory I would prefer only constructive suggestions from those who feel there is a benefit to cable upgrades please.
Cheers.

By that do you mean that a digital cable, being made of copper after all, can pick up and transmit noise that could affect sound quality in an improperly shielded downstream component, or that the characteristics of a cable somehow have the ability to polish the 1s and 0s, as you say, in such a way that sound quality can be impacted? |
I'm at a loss as to why discussing cables in a cable thread might derail it, but you may have a point in the sense that perhaps folks in the digital forum are better informed about digital. Maybe.
Do you and whoever penned that comment appreciate art? If so, this piece will fit right in with that world view: https://collections.lacma.org/node/239578
