Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference?

Thank God for good Samaritans like you out there who are watching over poor souls being sucked into spending THEIR money 🙄

Gene! The man, the myth, the legend!

Useless IMO, he is not going to change anyone’s mind: it won’t make the cable believers throw away the cables, and his fans were not going to buy any cables regardless, but continue to rejoice and masturbate while watching Gene in video

For some inexplicable reason, all cable haters flock the cable specific forums en masse. Why? Logical people typically would not visit subject areas that do not interest them. What is going on mongolos?

Gibberish Schiit glupson. As usual

@bluemoodriver: could you please show me how to measure tonality with my audio precision scope? I cannot figure this out. How about soundstage? Thanks

@sgreg1 : very good points as far as the HT is concerned. Great observations.

Being perfectly happy with basic cables like @sheridanmartinj is ... perfectly fine. It’s up to the hobbyists to decide how far they want to go with the hobby, and how many things (like cables, or other stuff) to try to optimize their system. It’s a hobby after all. It’s perfectly fine to try nothing. What it’s not fine IMO is going out and about in public proclaiming nothing makes a difference, and telling people what to buy and not buy, solely based on this very LACK of hands on experience. That is what many people do, and it baffles me

The ARC observation prompted me to share a True story:

I once knew a guy locally who was a big cable hater. He was a custom installer, home theater stuff, and mostly Sonos. He would always say cables are useless, every single time he got the chance, very loudly. He still does the same, in all Facebook groups he is part of, and in local gatherings, to get business ala Audioholics style.

One day I bought something from him, and went to his house to pick it up (he did not have a retail store). I noticed some very thick, awesome looking speaker cables he had his floor standing speakers connected with. So I asked him something like “what’s up with these?”. He said... Oh... a customer gave them to him for free, and he was only using them because they looked good. Then he went on to “explain” why speaker cables don’t matter, blah, blah, blah. 😂😂🙄🙄

I’d just thought I’d share.
