WHY CABLES MATTER!

I have seen the argument over and over again on why cables matter and the that wire is just wire and how scientifically it’s impossible for them to make a difference. The thing that surprises me the most is that different materials are used. Different shielding is used. Different connectors are used. Different braiding methods of the cables are used. Materials are sourced from different manufacturers and put through different creative processes but I always get some guy who comes on and says. WIRE IS WIRE AND YOU ARE NOT HEARING WHAT YOU ARE HEARING? To me it’s pure arrogance to think you know more than everybody else to the point where you tell me what we are hearing through my ears and we are not smart enough to know when are minds are playing trick on us. But using all these different materials, process and shielding and creative processes don’t make a difference. I spent the last 15 years trying all the cables I could try.  Thoughts anyone?

audioman2015,

You're totally right, I don't know how anyone cannot like OCC single crystal over OFC wire and just to let you know the rectangular OCC single crystal wire is even better than the round, not cheap though, check out the Neotech Sahara which is the copper rectangular OCC or the Amazon which is the silver rectangular OCC that's one is double the price of the copper, I have the Sahara in my system and it absolutely blew away my harmonic technology round OCC, I have the full loom of the rectangular in my system and boy did it make a difference but an even more significant difference and upgrade is putting the Townshend podiums underneath your speakers it stops all vibration down to three Hertz, it was as if I upgraded my electronics to something way more expensive, best upgrade that you could ever do. stops all room problems as well.
