Well said, Bob. Most of these so-called objectivists are nothing

than hypocrites. If they really believed what they spout they'd all
have £50 CD players from Tesco's, £100 NAD (or whatever ) amps and
use £2 interconnects and bell wire/mains cable for their speaker
connections. After all, these all "measure" as well as £2k CD
players/amps or expensive interconnects/speaker cables.
What about those of us who have measured things and done listening
tests and can demonstrate that a £2 interconnect in normal use is
sonically perfect?

Then please feel free to carry on listening to your £2 "sonically
perfect" interconnect with its "measured things".

Thanks. I shall.
Please feel free to suggest a method of demonstrating the differences
between interconnects. I'm quite willing to give it a try.

As far as I'm concerned it's up to every individual to determine the
best interconnect (or any other hi-fi component) for themselves on the
basis of whatever rationale they choose - be it price, electrical
specfications, colour, listening tests etc.

What I object to are the "objectivists" insisting that their chosen
rationale is the only one and (even worse) failing to follow it
themselves in their chosen hi-fi equipment.
