Quick question for the Cables Don't Make a Difference Crowd. 

Why don't you all just completely eliminate cables by buying an all in one with powered speakers using Wi-Fi or BT?

@tkrtrb125 Your question makes no sense.  Different cables might not make a difference sound wise, but they are necessary for separate components.  Naysayers would say that once you recognize the need for cables they all sound alike.  You're asking whether all-in-one solutions sound better than separates.  Some argue that the all-in-one is superior because it eliminates many connections.  

@helomech  Sorry I didn't see your post before I made mine.  Maybe this will help the OP with the thinking.

I detect an attitude.

 

Well fact is I do have several systems built around integrated devices. Not having to deal with wires because the engineers already did is a bonus.   I don’t miss having to deal with wires one bit.  It’s a total non issue.  DSP is a much more powerful tweak. 

I, too, felt that a cable shouldn't make a significant difference in sound quality...

But, I had the chance to demo the (then) new Audioquest cables by Garth Powell.

It was clear that they did make a difference, and for the better. It was a simple A/B test.
