A little History lesson on, "High- End" cables:


Inquiring minds might want to know, how the High-End cable market all got started.  Expiring minds?   Well......   (http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/a-short-history-of-high-end-cables/)

To add to DrBarney1’s post (and I agree with his math), it is possible that in some circumstances skin effect in a speaker cable can actually be beneficial. While it will have negligible effects at audio frequencies, as he indicated, it seems conceivable that the resistance rise it causes at RF frequencies could reduce RFI that is picked up by the cable and introduced into the feedback loop of the amplifier (assuming the amp has a feedback loop). RFI that might otherwise have audible consequences as a result of effects such as intermodulation or AM demodulation, that may occur within the amp.

And in connection with that possibility I note the following statement in the article:

Hiraga pointed out that while theoretically the skin effect appears to be negligible for frequencies below 200kHz, subjective listening tests suggest otherwise. Apparently, he started experimenting as early as 1972 with Litz-type speaker cable, which consists of a large number of individually insulated fine wires twisted or braided into a uniform pattern in order to maximize conductor surface area. He substituted Litz wire between an amplifier and an Onken 5000T tweeter and discovered that as the number of strands increased, so did the impression of detail and definition, accompanied by the perception of additional distortion. The obvious conclusion was that one should not shoot the messenger since the Litz cable was allowing more of the message to get through.


Perhaps the "obvious conclusion" that is stated is not so obvious, and instead "the impression of detail and definition, accompanied by the perception of additional distortion" was due to the effects of RFI that I referred to. Those effects resulting in inaccuracies that were subjectively preferable, and were maximized by a reduction in skin effect.

No doubt the brickbats descending on some pricey mega-cables (or many others) are well deserved, but, wading into better cables years ago with no knowledge or expectations, my ears instantly recognized a favorable difference, since reconfirmed many times as I've gone up the ladder.  (Notwithstanding my remaining opinion that cables are perhaps the biggest snake oil area in audiophilia--some of the prices are beyond ridiculous.)  I've recently transitioned from very well-known and respected cables that made a nice difference in my system to a brand with a very radically different approach, Omega Mikro.  Their cables are "planar", i.e. extremely thin single ribbons of copper with minimal dielectric, almost no dielectric in some models.  The company's emphasis is on the importance of timing, not the standard criteria seen in most cable designs.  Pricewise, compared to performance, they are a bargain.  
They've elevated my already excellent system to a new level--clean, pure, highly resolved, complete music.  They require careful handling and a bit more attention in selecting, but once it you are set for enchanting sound.

Like them or don’t, Cables are a lot of the reason why I enjoy hi-end, as it is fun to listen to the different sound signatures of each individual cable. 

If if you cannot hear the difference(s) then it is most like not fun to try new cables and cable designs. 

The first hi-end Power Cord I tried after hours at CES 1995 blew my mind, as I thought the bass was turned up 2-3 dB!!!
My first set of high end cables in the early 80s were from Randall Research, I've been convinced of their benefits ever since. Currently all my cables are Purist.
I think everyone will enjoy the encounter between Blue Jeans Cable, as used by Brayeagle and by me, and Monster Cable. You can Google the combination or check out this link:

Monster bit off more than they could chew that time.
