Do all good interconnects sound the same?
Before you get angry with me this is not my personal point of view. I have noticed differences in each of my interconnects. But I came across an article by highly acclaimed audio designer Rodger Sanders of Sanders Sound Systems. Formally of Innersound Speakers. His new model 10c won the Golden Ear award for 2010. I've never heard his new system but I like the Innersound stuff I heard. Here is a comment from the white papers on cables cut from his website. What do you guys think?
"There is no doubt that speaker cables can exert a small influence on the sound of your audio system. But interestingly, all well-designed interconnects sound identical". Rodger Sanders
His IC's are fairly inexpensive made from Belden Cable of some form. Has anyone tried them and what did you think?

I am always amazed that some of the people that design some of the best audio components use some of the crappiest components to drive them with or listen to them from. This has not been my experience at all. From the shows I've attended, and the hand full of manufacturers I know, I've found that by far the vast majority are very selective about which components they build their show systems from, and about which companion gear/manufacturers they choose to show with. It would not be in their best interests to do anything less, and their livelihood depends upon it. Can you give us a few examples of manufacturers who you've observed using "crappy" components to showcase their own products? More to the point a cable designer should have both tube and solid state amps/preamps and a verity of speakers to design with. What makes you think Roger Sanders has not tried a variety of components in order to form the opinion he has? This implies you know a whole lot about Roger Sanders, except how to spell his name. My opinion you don't need to respect it, my wife doesn't either. I'm with your wife. |
