Regardless of what the cables ACTUALLY sound like, if the guy thinks they sound better, and feels they are worth the insane price he spent on them, what’s wrong with that? He is enjoying the product, it doesn’t actually have to be better. I don’t see the big deal with people and cables. Even if they didn’t make a difference, there is people that think they do. That is all that matters.

Walter is my hero in this thread.

I run speaker wire I got from my dad that was produced in the 60’s. its pure silver.

doesnt help that I run my computer through a logitech system through a radio shack 3.5mm to dual rca to my reciever, but it works, and my speakers still sound fantastic.

As much as mp3s suck, I am at least getting the most out of them.

and since i dont feel like making a new thread for it.

Hey walter, I am having a problem with my Klipsch subwoofer, It picks up a local jazz FM radio station.

The broadcast tower is about a half mile from my house.

would it be the 6 foot monster cable? Or the Sub itself.

My velodyne with an off brand 30 foot cable does not do this.

i’m saying that if you think there is that much of a notable difference to pay 2500 for a wire, let alone 7000, you should shoot yourself in the face.

make sure to setup a camera and have a friend host the video while playing a shitty quality mp3.

edit: where is my fucking ice pick

Oh hell no, i never understood who the fuck would actually PAY for this shit… The first cable i payed for in my life besides dollar store speaker cable for unrelated purposes was 2 weeks ago, $8 HDMI cable. It does its job just fine… And it was $8…

But when your spending $40,000 on speakers, $20,000 on each and for each speaker, some insane amount for your room to be built ‘perfect’, $50 a outlet… etc… What the hell is $7,000? Obviously you got money.

is there some “ooh shiny!” factor? sure. there’s certainly audio ‘bling’ - but there’s also truth (within reason - and only your own budget and level-of-equipment-quality can determined that) to cable influencing sound.
