1. John Dunlavy is in his early 70's not 80's. And while he might have "senior moments" like many folks do, I can tell you from recent personal experience that he is anything but "loosing it".
2. John's philosophy of cable design is to insure that "loudspeaker cables possess all the electrical properties required to ensure that no audible degradation of complex musical waveforms and transients can occur between the output terminals of a power-amp, and the input terminals of a loudspeaker." (from his website)
3. John claims he can always 100% of the time hear the difference in sighted test and never in blind test.
4. He also claims that no one has ever figured out which cable was playing when he performed his blind test in his office.
5. Never has he said "no one can hear a difference"
6. I know folks who claim they have never missed identifying which cable was playing when doing the test blind and I believe them.
7. Lest we forget, this hobby is supposed to be fun but based upon some of the posts on this thread, it appears that some have yet to figure that out
8. I actually hope John Dunlavy is correct. Look how much money we can spend on music (novel idea)
9. You can take some of the mega buck wire and get estimates on cost to manufacture and you will find that the margins are in the bazillioin digits !!
