I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!



The issue is now solved via irrefutable scientific data and rigorous validation after unprecedented levels of physical effort. I now know why swapping cables works, and why a great deal of other tweaks work too.

I spent a great deal of time over the weekend cleaning my entertainment center. I used a Swiffer with the extending wand attachment. Immediately afterwards I went to watch a movie and the sound was clearer, cleaner than I’d ever heard it before. The video didn’t change, but the audio, it was so good I stopped playing the Fellowship of the Ring for the 10th time and went to listen to music.

Oh my goodness, what deep and extended soundstage! Not only could I hear deeper into all of my music but instruments had bodies and height! Diana Krall was so palpably present I wanted to buy her dinner. But what had changed?? Every single cable was left as it was, but I had cleaned!!

That’s when it hit me. All my tweaks and all my cable replacements did nothing. It was the cleaning I did every time I replaced a set of cables that actually caused the revolutionary transformations I was experiencing.  Same for every other audiophile!! You've ignored the cleaning and ascribed changes to gear.  We've been fooled!

On a completely unrelated note, I will soon be releasing my own line of advanced, jitter free, cleaning solutions, in peach, evergreen, unscented and Axe Body Spray fragrances.

Depending on how your friend washed his car, if any of the suspension components got wet it’s possible that it could have a positive effect, at least temporarily, on the ride quality. Also, wet tires should be slightly softer (they certainly cut easier) and that could also temporarily soften the ride which would feel good.

My friend and I didn’t feel that our cars RODE more comfortably, we felt the engines and drive trains RAN better. Two different things.

 

@thyname you seem to have a dog in this fight or at least expensive speaker cables both of which I do not.  Nor do I plan too have.  I absolutely love music so for me, my equipment is just a means to an end.   Cheap or expensive is relative to the buyer. So long as the music I’m playing sounds pleasing to me I don’t really care what was paid for it.  

 

@galverado : Then why are you posting on a “cables and tweaks” thread? Not sure who has a dog on this fight. And why “Fight” anyways? Are you here perceiving there is a war you have a duty to fight?
