Actually, a lot of agnostics and atheists can hear speaker cable
differences. There's no hocus-pocus involved, just some science that the
sceptics disregard.

So, you can send a sine wave down a bit of cable and it'll come out the
other end as exactly the same sine wave. Guess what? Music isn't a sine
wave.


All sound can be treated as though it is composed of sine waves.


All sound can be treated as if its composed of putty, but that still
doesn't mean that it is.

Dealing with waves only in the frequency domain does mean you have lost
temperal (phase) information.

And how exactly do you think that a cable might screw this up? And do
bear in mind that the speaker itself subsequently does a heroic job of
doing exactly that.
