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.

Those crazy eastern philosophies. In yoga there are the 5 yamas the first ahimsa is non-violence the second is satya, truthfulness. Centuries ago it was the other way around but they changed it. Why would they do that? The first was always considered the most important and truthfulness held that honored position for a long time but followers of Pantanjali kept fighting over what truth meant so it was changed and placed behind non-violence. Doesn’t mean anything something that entered my mind reading your post.
Thanks very interesting post indeed...

Except eastern philosophies are no more crazy than western one, they are complementary way of being culturally....

The changes you alluded to was simply a sign in the times (Aeon) to be read like a sign and understood....

Sometimes cultures like individuals collide without understanding themselves in their deep complementarities... It is like that in many forums....  :)

My best to you....
It is well known that bullies call other people bullies when people stand up to them. Given that there are at least 4 people piling on, it is pretty obvious who the bullies are now isn’t it.


You know what is really funny @thyname, I would know absolutely nothing about you if you didn’t claim I was someone else but you did, so that made me think they probably made you look bad too.

Now it all makes sense. I know exactly who you are. You are that dude that runs back to Audio Subjective every time someone dares to say cables are not as important as you believe. People have also accused you of making another forum toxic, and making that forum yet another forum that is mainly about complaining. You epitomize bullying. Aren’t you banned from ANA?

No s@&*%t, you just realized that now? That’s what this guy does, full time. It’s his job. Every single Facebook group and audio forum. He has mastered the art of trolling. Can’t beat him I am afraid


Ahhhh..... cat is out of the bag! AtDavid! Why are you posting under different username you never said?
I am so happy that I believe what I see and hear, rather than listen to others who try to say I should deny those things. That I must live by their rules because they define the rules for others, and doing otherwise is denying the truth, according to them. They must define what truth is for us, some of them seem very desperate to make us see thus truth, as if their truth will unravel if not. We should be the sheeple to their temple of truth. I’m happy with just being me, not sure why they’re so insistent we must be them

Lots of reasons, but its like with power cords, the reasons why they make a difference matter nowhere near as much to us as the fact they do make a difference. The designer on the other hand, in order to come up with better designs it does usually help to understand why these things work.
So in the same way it really doesn't matter why some of these people act the way they do. Why matters more to the psychoanalyst or whoever may be trying to see if they can get them to work better. For us the only thing that matters is they do not in fact work very well. 

It can reach a point where everyone has tried pretty much everything they can think of, and the choice is either learn to be a psychoanalyst or move on to putting your time and energy to where it might actually do some good. In other words if they can't be persuaded to come around, or maybe aren't even mentally capable of understanding the need, then sometimes the best thing we have left is to politely ignore and move on.
