Why is it that most of the contributors to this group seem to be
some sort of anti- hifi sound quality brigade who seem to think
that all cd players sound the same and that measurements and specs
of components are king? Have we reverted back to the 1970's when
all you had to worry about was how many watts your speakers could
handle? Come on guy's if you really don't like quality sound give
it a rest and talk about something else on another group! Maybe
there's a group about saddo's who just post controvertial stuff to
annoy everyone? Maybe their's a group about nerds who just like to
see their own posts on a screen!!


Well, we could talk about the misuse of the apostrophe, for a start.


Pluralisation by apostrophe ! Often called the greengrocer's
apostrophe.

Seen recently in a pub (honestly) .... " Fish and Chip's ".

**** head!!


If you are so thick as to not understand the simple laws on apostrophe use
it puts the rest of your argument into question. And adequately proved by
your later statement that 'cables do sound different'.

Of course it is possible to make a cable to modify an audio signal but
only charlatans sell them to satisfy the gullible.
