Default Cables - the definitive answer

That would come under "etc etc"...

Well, you're wrong.



What you should have done was to get your friend to try this again,
but with the cables the other way round.


Except we'd then know which cable was which, so you'd start crying about
"psychological effects".

Interesting that you 'consider the case closed', but have no interest
at all in collecting £1,000 for doing the same trick with an
independent witness........


I can make that much in half the time it would take to carry out this
test you keep rattling on about.

Or to put it another way, if I took time off work to do your challenge,
and won, I wouldn't be any better off. Because I'd have lost that £1,000
by taking time off work.

Plus no doubt you'd probably come up with some cock and bull reason to
declare the test "invalid" and refuse to pay up.

Just another lying chicken****!


Yay, personal insults again.

I have nothing whatsoever to gain by bull****ting people about cables.

1. I don't make interconnects.

2. I don't sell interconnects.

3. I don't sell or make hi-fi.

I make a living from computer consultancy etc, not hi-fi. As far as I'm
concerned the hi-fi is for enjoying the music, not the other way around.
And if using decent interconnects and speaker cables helps achieve that,
then fair enough.

Note that I don't advocate spending £100+ on interconnects. Indeed the
biggest difference can be heard between the crappy one that comes in the
box and something like a Cambridge Atlantic for £10. Probably the best
tenner you'll ever spend.
