Note extreme sarcasm in the above paragraph - I have to spell it out
because certain people in this group (not yourself I might add) might
not realise that I'm being incredibly ironic in the above paragraph...

Seriously though, as far as I'm concerned that experiment proves beyond
reasonable doubt that cables do make a difference to the sound. And
while I wouldn't advocate going out and spending £100+ on a set of
interconnects, spending £15 or so is a worthwhile investment for a
decent mid-range system, or possibly a bit higher for a higher end system.

And plus there's the "is it worth it" argument. A set of Cambridge
Pacific interconnects at £30 are about as far as most people need to go.
I'm only using a Cobra II because I got one for less than half price at
last year's hi-fi show. It's worth £24, but wouldn't be worth £55 - the
difference over the £30 Pacific isn't worth the extra £25.

Odd that you didn't include "I just made up this fairy tale because I
had a couple of minutes to spare at my keyboard".

Seriously though, as far as I'm concerned that experiment proves beyond
reasonable doubt that cables do make a difference to the sound.

Well, you're wrong. What you should have done was to get your friend
to try this again, but with the cables the other way round. However,
since you now consider the case closed, I'm happy that you're not
going to repeat this ********.

Interesting that you 'consider the case closed', but have no interest
at all in collecting £1,000 for doing the same trick with an
independent witness........

Just another lying chicken****!

Well, you're wrong.

Except we'd then know which cable was which, so you'd start crying about
"psychological effects".

I can make that much in half the time it would take to carry out this
test you keep rattling on about.

Or to put it another way, if I took time off work to do your challenge,
and won, I wouldn't be any better off. Because I'd have lost that £1,000
by taking time off work.

Plus no doubt you'd probably come up with some cock and bull reason to
declare the test "invalid" and refuse to pay up.

Just another lying chicken****!

Yay, personal insults again.

I have nothing whatsoever to gain by bull****ting people about cables.

1. I don't make interconnects.

2. I don't sell interconnects.

3. I don't sell or make hi-fi.

I make a living from computer consultancy etc, not hi-fi. As far as I'm
concerned the hi-fi is for enjoying the music, not the other way around.
And if using decent interconnects and speaker cables helps achieve that,
then fair enough.

Note that I don't advocate spending £100+ on interconnects. Indeed the
biggest difference can be heard between the crappy one that comes in the
box and something like a Cambridge Atlantic for £10. Probably the best
tenner you'll ever spend.

You do both tests *before* you call which one you think is the 'good'
cable. Sheesh!

Yeah yeah, sure you could - it would take less than a couple of hours,
so you're just lying again.

Liar. Chicken**** liar. You think that *anyone* reading this thread is
dumb enough to believe your fairy tales?

Plus no doubt you'd probably come up with some cock and bull reason to

The impartial observer holds the money. You've been told this before,
so you're just trying to weasel your way out of your lies and
chicken**** again.

Just another lying chicken****!

Yay, personal insults again.

I have nothing whatsoever to gain by bull****ting people about cables.

Sure you do - you get to brag about your golden ears.

And of course, that's why you're a lying chicken****.

BTW, didn't you say that you consider this case closed? Liar.

Regrettable that you have never learned that one may smile, and smile,

Or did you in fact know that all too well?

The man does some tests, whatever, says a thing or two about the
results, and you retort with "Liar. Chicken**** liar." and *I* am the
one with an attitude problem that I'd be "projecting"?!?!?!

Wonder what would our esteemed double standarts Mistah Pearce think
about your attitude if you would have been a subjectivist?

I gave pearce my email, we've agreed upon the protocol, all is set to go.

Glenn.I think it would be in the interests of all of us, if you could meet
up
with Don, and do some tests according to the protocol which he has set
down. This would make an inteeresting thread.

Regards to all
