Stevemj- There are many theories put forth by manufacturers, though few have adequate analysis to convince someone such as yourself (I've seen a couple of your posts). In the end, it's only relevant to YOU as to which magazine or accepted scientific proof meets your needs. If you don't hear a difference in cables and you have no desire to improve the sound of your system, be happy. Otherwise, spend many years in high-end like mosty of us on this forum, listening with all kinds of cables from pennies/ft to many $100s/ft, and then you'll have some basis of experience. As it stands now, you neither have scientific proof nor offered extensive personal experience that different, adequately sized, cables sound identical. Without either, your responses on this topic can't be taken seriously (if they were actually meant to be). Just my .02
