Default Cables -The Antepenultimate Answer.

Or, getting back to one of my original points, it's about something
called "musicality"...

What do we spend all this money on hi-fi for anyway? To get orgasmic
over technical specs? To have sexual fantasies about glowing valves?
(Well... some people might!)

Errm, nope. The hi-fi is the means to the end, not the end itself. That
end is the music. And that's the most important thing, which is what
everyone seems to forget when they get bogged down in S:N ratios,
frequency response, linearity, damping factors, or whether cable A
sounds any different to cable B.

The bottom line is that if system B makes the music sound better than
system A, you buy system B. It's as simple as that.
