DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
^^^^^  and...there we go again....Another in-depth analysis of the issue.

Yes brayeagle, it’s great to have custom made stuff from Blue Jeans. I’m going to have some interconnect made, short and long. They have really low capacitance interconnects which is great for some long runs I need, especially to my subwoofers. Th... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
Wow, discussions in the cable forum can get strange.  
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
Ok nonoise, I can see we can't go any further.  I think you would probably have a more meeting-of-the-minds with Teo, as you seem operating on the same wavelength.    ;-) 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
Sorry nonoise, I still can’t make heads or tails of what you are saying, and I see nothing addressing the point I had repeated to you. (I think maritime51 is right about this, but I’ll try pressing on for a moment).There are better made cables tha...

Folks, for those who blew drivers, like the 2.7/3.7  coax, what were the sonic symptoms?  Did the sound just die?  Or did a crackle develop in the sound....something like that?(The only driver I've ever seen damaged in my home is, apparently, one ... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
nonoise,Thanks, but I found your post fairly confusing, not sure exactly what you wanted to argue. Because it seemed at some points you acknowledged that standard cable used for the recording transmitted 100% of the signal...and then at another po... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
trelja,I already have delayed selling the thiels.  I've had intentions to sell them for almost a year, and kept them this long....just in case.  But as the 2.7s have done wonderfully over that time, I've weaned myself from the 3.7s and, really, th... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
Apropos of my speaker blathering, Stereophile actually has binaural recordings for both the Devore and the Joseph speakers.I’ve always been intrigued at how even video camera microphones actually capture *some* sense of a speaker’s sound (especial...

Ok, jafant....I just can not read your last line up of posts and not think of a previous quip someone had made. Along those lines, if your current source of employment dries up I think you can slip easily into another similar gig:https://www.job-a... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
rbstehno,I don’t think you quite got the point I had made.The first is that, whatever amazing detail you EVER get through the most expensive, best audiophile cables you can buy - all that will ever tell you is about the sound quality that was pass... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
So essentially calvinj has shown, repeatedly, that he really just created this thread to troll people who are more skeptical than he is about cables. Elizabeth also was happy enough to enter this thread and "alienate another audiophile" and "drive... 
YOUTUBE and Vinyl are gonna bankrupt me!
rbstehno,I've actually found that most of the music I end up liking on youtube can be found on vinyl.  And that includes almost every new artist/new album, whether it's alt-pop, electronic, jazz, smooth-vibe jazz etc.   It seems to me almost every...

What are "hot stamper" records?

FWIW:I had a very long run for my speaker cables (my source equipment is in a different room) so I went with Belden 5T00UP 10 awg cable (bought from Blue Jeans cable).   The specs were excellent and just what I needed for long speaker cables witho...
