The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is

@ptss Haven't you learned??? Gon'rs don't like being told their $39k wires are foolish!!! If they didn't listen to common reasoning....their audiophile experiences...hell, technical facts....they why would they listen to you??? The arbitrary subjectivity of the distance between two points is subjectively subjective to your subjectiveness. DUH!!!

This is very fitting.

So, these cables are worth the $39k price tag...and can out perform cables below this price point...because of the number of twists??

@geoffkait They forget the password to the account with all their other posts. Besides, somebody has to provide relevant experience...besides "getting your numbers up". Plus its an easy, enjoyable way to pass time. All the subjectivity and blatant disregard for all things non-subjective adds perspective to the hobby. I welcome it!

@fliz That being true, is it regulated by price? All things being equal (materials, configuration, etc) at what price point do you reach diminishing return? Does this mean the more expensive the produce, the better?

(Caveat: these questions overlook the actions of your typical audiophile with a large budget.)

@alpha_gt So what of the $39k price tag for cables?

@russmaleartist your logic, rational, and fact-based reasoning will get you no where. You were completely dismissed...with you lack of subjectively anti-objective subjectiveness...not because you're objective but you only have 12 posts...which lacked subjectivity.

I'm beginning to like this place again. I might have to stick around...until I get bored with the rhetoric...then I'll leave again.

"reasons" might include validation (of owning the best), fear (of not owning the best), affirmation (of belonging to the exclusive club), and the afterglow (bias confirmation).

@mitch2 Interestingly enough, all of which are self imposed.

The audiophile who thinks spending $XXX makes them an audiophile, is equally foolish.
