Who says cables don't make a difference?


Funny, after all these years, people still say things like "you wasted all that money on cables". 
There are still those who believe cables don't make a difference.
I once did marketing for a cable line I consider to be about the best-Stealth Audio Cables. 
One CES, I walked the rooms with the designer/owner, Serguei Timachev. He carried a pair of his then new Indra interconnects. Going from room to room he asked the room runners to replace their source to preamp IC with the Indra. There was not one that was not completely flabbergasted and said that the Indras blew away what they were using. That was the skyrocketing of Indra and Stealth. The Indra became one of the best reviewed cables ever.
Serguei now makes the Sakra-an IC that blows away the Indra!
I don't understand why some still do not value cables as much as I.

Cables as important as any component in my system.  I'm building a SYSTEM.  Like wasting a Ferrari using cheap tires.
From my experience more expensive doesn't guarantee best SQ and takes WORK and trial / error  to find the right ones.   With that said, best cables in my system are CRAZY expensive but worth every penny!
Shouting this louder will never make it true, no matter how distorted modern audiophilia has become ...
From my experience, everything is equally important.  Your experience may differ which is perfectly fine with me.

cables prices vs production costs leads to highest margins in the industry, thus the greed/exploitation factor is the most extreme (in an industry where the average level of marketing bs is already fairly high)
Knowledge and skill building cables usually neglected in calculating final production cost. 

Like EVERYTHING in the market, Caveat Emptor!
Keep your 50 dollars cables.... But treat your room and prepare yourself for a big surprize....

The best improvement is not about cables but a dedicated controlled audio only room.... :)

EVERYTHING is equally important in my system.  I neglect NOTHING!
