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.

"That is because you only waste your time" Actually I believe I wasted you a couple of times. 🥇😄
Your lack of ability to understand what I post is not funny @andy2. Is that why you have not responded in YOUR thread with measurements of 2 cables as you said you would, and that you have not responded w.r.t. the Pass paper issue I noted?
"Is that the real problem boxer12? ... that you only have some hobby level experience, but I have educational, research and practical experience in electronics, signal processing and acoustics? ... does it make you feel inadequate?"

Nope. I'm enjoying this hobby 

Question:
Do you really think people feel inadequate around you? The reason I'm asking is you've stated that a couple times now & it couldn't be farther from the truth. You seem to have disdain for audiophiles which is unusual since that's what this forum caters too. 
Some has disdain for solutions that dont come from them or dont have a place in their frame of mind.... :)
Not me, i guess i was an audiophile, because the most important was for me to win a good hi-fi by my own means only ( i dont have the luxury of money). And i am not an engineer....

But in audio, the engineering basic design is already mature for the last 50 years, and except some new technology, the basic design is mature, then almost all product are on a quality/price ladder with 3 rungs : low, mid, high....Even dac technology begins to be good in the last decade and affordable...

Then for an audiophile, the S. Q. comes mostly from many other things than only electronical basic information or design... Pick some good E.C. (electronic component) on this ladder and the S. Q. increase will not come from basic electronical information mainly , but from the way you will embeds this audio system in your house and room....

Within 2 years of experiments each week mainly, i create my homemade low cost solutions to these 3 embeddings problem that would seem ridiculous or worst appalling in some case for a classical audio engineer... They works marvel for peanuts....My ears said so indeed....

No measuring electronic device would have made that possible...No way....

Controls of resonance, of the house electrical grid and last but not least of the acoustic with not only with passive materials but mostly active different ways can create a S. Q. "out of this world" without any unecessary upgrade...

My principal audio discovery after my own experience, is most people dont even know what the audio system they already own is able optimally to deliver....No electronic measuring device would replace the methods i had use to controls this 3 embeddings...For sure no change of cables too.... :)

For the cables problem, yes there is difference, no they are not generally big differences, and thirdly most people listen to cables in a non controlled environment then how can they be sure that their cables is the best?...

And last, most cables afficionados put their money at the wrong place, and for that i think like roberttdid  and i have the same opinion .... But his measuring proof is for me unecessary and his blind testing obsession let me cold like ice.... My ears speak louder to me about cables differences so to speak.... :)

I trained my ears to transform my own system without needing any engineer, with good basic electronic component....I succeed for the cost of almost peanuts.... I dont sell nothing, my idea are free and i dont upgrade....

Regards to all....
