I don’t think anybody would seriously bother. Cables make little to no difference as anyone can verify themselves easily - provided they have good equipment. If you have big differences then get better matching equipment, repair it or get rid of it.

Nobody who sells high end cables does double blind because it would show that special high $ cables dont work (unless they have a filter) and ordinary cables are just perfect as good audio systems are designed that way - so there is no interest to prove that cable products are just snake oil and hence none of the sellers or manufactures offer any form of proof.

Obviously if a manufacturer could prove their high end cable to be audibly superior to others then you can bet one or more of the hundreds of manufacturers would be offering demonstrations - quickest way to make millions of $ so it is not like there is no incentive to prove the superiority of a product.
“I think the reality is that many who maintain there are no differences between cables (or other things in audio) don’t want to deal with the personal and/or financial implications of such differences being real. Denying differences are possible is their way of avoiding those implications.“


LOL. I am over 100K invested in my setup and don’t have anything other than ordinary wires! I don’t need anything but ordinary wires because I bought high fidelity gear. If a 10K cable made a difference you can be assured I would have 4 or 5 of them. 
LOL. Geoff is right - you absolutely have to SEE a cable in order to BELIEVE what you hear.
