Intrigueing. I was not aware that people sell cables that deliberately roll
off the HF end and claim they sound better and not only that sell them for
lots of cash. Amazing.

QED Silver Spiral is one example IMHO, you can tell them in a AB from
normal maplin shark.



No, you can't - not unless you *know* what's connected.


Just makes the sound polite and nice. Well thats
one way to describe it, another is dull, and lacking in treble. Its not
a huge difference, but I bet its enough in a HiFi shop to make a harsh
system sound more listenable.



Bull****. As noted, you can pick up an easy grand if you really can do
this. Want a ten grand sidebet? :-)


No thanks, However I will repeat the test today, and see if its possible
to measure any difference.
