| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? "Cables need to settle!" Actually I thought this was presented as a joke. Now I see it is just another snake oil input into the overall high-priced cable joke. Do not be offended. My beef isn’t with those who who are unknowingly victims...but with... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? "Cables need to SETTLE." Really...now they need to settle? Is that after they are burned in? Before they are "elevated? Holy Moly! I am still chuckling at the comparison with flowers growing. | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Audioman58: need to proof your posts, dude.... painful to read. | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? My opinion continues that if you have decent cables to begin with, any improvement in sound quality, if any (and I don't think there will be any) is going to be so subtle that the only way you will be able to discern a difference is with an instan... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Some points:1. The link to Dr Waldrep’s test was recently posted by another member (scroll up)….I had never heard of the guy before. I had no original intent to “cite” that test except to counter dlcockrum’s slam on the good doctor's objectivity... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? @ dlcockrum: I may have missed your point but I doubt seriously I missed the point. That point is that before people spend hundreds or (even) thousands of dollars on pretty cables with shiney connects, that come in felt bags and wooden boxes, tha... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Goef: thanks for the explanation. Part of that sounded algebraic or similar to finate math; but I get your point.Dlcockrum: I get that you do not care for my point of view and beliefs relative to this issue... but getting personal and lobbing ins... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? goef...sorry, I do not get your comment: "Sorry to say, that just screams Appeal to Authority. You know, an illogical argument. An excellent example, actually."What does this mean? | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? dlcockrum says (regarding the DR. Waldrep article/test): "My point exactly. Based on his opening, the author was intent on proving there are no differences, thus he proclaimed to hear none."What you failed to mention, in over site, is that other ... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? I found that article specifically objective. Did you read more than the first and last sentences. Anyone who finds this test less than objective just doesn't want to see/hear/believe the results. The psyco-placebo effect personified. | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? 213runnin says: "The idea that a manufacturer can "choose" to sell $5/ft(their cost) cable for $750/ft shows a complete ignorance of basic economics."The above statement demonstrates a complete ignorance of the reality of high end cable/IC/wire ma... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? A manufacturer can produce a cable of "exotic" design and beautiful appearance for $5 a foot. He can then choose to sell it for $10 per foot or $750 a foot. If it looks good enough, he might decide to market it as exceptionally high-end and sell... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? So dill...You took the time out of your busy day to reply to...no, actually defame my previous post. Do you have a point? A comment? A remark? A question? An opinion? Or was your sole purpose just to assume that the entire audiophile world Is ... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Was thinking the other night, after a near two day pause in this discussion. A number of acoustic engineers have been quoted saying that if basic cable requirements are met, spending more on "designer" cables/wire cannot achieve a more superior so... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? aberyclark said: "I have to say, if I were able to afford the much higher end gear, I would probably invest in cables of the same level."Good comment. As I mentioned in an earlier post, explains why an audio geek who has spent $3,500,000.00 on hi... |
