"Bloody hell!" Yes, indeed it did make a difference, we both heard
it quite clearly. Improved imaging and a much less muddy sound.
How come there are NEVER and stories that start *Once upon a time we
changed over to these high dollar interconnects and they sounded like
s#!t.* All these interconnect and speaker wire stories always have a
happy ending.

Actually the first time I heard someone going on about interconnects he
was using a Monster Interlink 100. I swapped it for the freebie one and
couldn't hear any difference.

The interesting thing is when he came back into the room and put a CD on
he said "what's wrong with that, it's gone all flat?" then looked round
the back... and saw I'd swapped the interconnects over.

He'd been in the other room making a coffee at the time and had no idea
I was fiddling around behind his hi-fi.

On that occasion I didn't hear a difference (his system at the time was
an Aiwa XC-300, Technics SU-VX600 and TDL RTL1 speakers) but clearly he
did as the example above shows.
