Indeed, and I agree. However, there is science to suggest that the
effect does happen, but as you say, to what extent, and is it worth
consideration?
What you should consider is *what effect* rather than simply accept what
advertisers tell you to believe.
You're rather incorrectly assuming that I believe advertisers.
Since a length of cable and a louspeaker load form a complex electrical
filter to a small degree, it's inevitable that changing the cable will
'sound different' if only because the frequency response will differ
slightly. That much is assured although the extend to which it's audible
could be debated at some length.
Quite obviously.
There is additionaly a huge amout of self-deception over what is or isn't
audible no doubt based on these well-distributed myths that the hi-fi
fraternity would have you buy into ( quite literally).
Well, in my case I just bought some rolls of cable from CPC, at a very
good price, and had enough to biwire. The Castles didn't have their
links when I bought them (second hand), so I just biwired them instead.
I didn't spend a great deal of money doing this, or a lot of time
pondering it. The net result, I have a system that sounds good, whether
the biwiring actually makes a difference is irrelevant.
