Default Cables - the definitive answer

Seriously though, as far as I'm concerned that experiment proves beyond
reasonable doubt that cables do make a difference to the sound. And while
I wouldn't advocate going out and spending £100+ on a set of
interconnects, spending £15 or so is a worthwhile investment for a decent
mid-range system, or possibly a bit higher for a higher end system.


That doesn't make sense. You're suggesting there is a difference between a
"no cost" cable and a £15 one, but no difference between a £15 and a £100
one. So just where is this cut off point. You need to do more experiments
before presenting your conclusion.

Which is why this argument will neve die. Personally I couldn't give a
stuff - I use decent quality mic cable on Neutrik connectors.


Probably can't be beaten on technical grounds - at any price. I use
similar in my TV system, but just thin unshielded twisted pair in my
main music system - but with Neutrik XLRs.
