Cool. My son lives in Dallas.
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?

@tonywinga come check us out. Looking forward |
@ tvrgeek Thanks for your detailed response. I'm usually skeptical about such claims as I listed. I also realize I have much to learn. Working in a research environment has helped me to be skeptical but with a need/want to understand. After reading through this thread, it is obvious that everyone has their insights and preference built on their experience and knowledge. That is what I was looking for. Thanks to all that responded.

@ernstmach Then you need to do more research and give this podcast a listen. Cables do matter no matter how much Science and knowledge The Geek espouses. He is not an engineer nor is he a designer/manufacturer. Pure conjecture on his part. Peter Comeau is a renowned engineer and designer and will debunk a lot that is said in these forums. Again, just the facts from a real engineer. https://darko.audio/2023/10/podcast-10-hi-fi-myths-busted-w-peter-comeau/ |
