Pass. He said he worked "in broadcasting". So I was merely making an
observation about what broadcasting is like these days.


Yes well there are a few engineers still left, in a minority, and plenty

Are you by any chance a greengrocer?


Nope...Y U ask,,

All those apostrophes in your plurals where there should be none. They
are known as greengrocers' apostrophes because of their proliferation
on their price list signs.

So what? You still can't hear differences among tables

Course I can. A nice solid oak table makes a satisfying "thunk" when you
whack it. An Ikea chipboard table makes a hollow "thwack" noise and
sounds distinctly inferior.

Bull****. You just *believe* that there's a difference, but you duck
any chance to *prove* that you really can hear a difference, even when
there's an easy £1,000 up for grabs. Pathetic.

Indeed, all the ducking and diving seems something of an indication
that you don't really believe it any more, but you have to maintain
the bull**** level to save face. Even more pathetic.

Stewart, right or wrong, no-one can deny that you have an
endearing literary style:-)

I've been accused of many things, but having an endearing style isn't
in the top ten................

Well... sometimes I read the discussions in here and wonder. Then I go
back to the system, and try swapping some interconnects around. And
every time I hear a difference, which is consistent and repeatable.

Every test I've ever done, blind or straight, has resulted in a clearly
audible difference.


As I said before, all you have proven is that under certain circumstances
certain people can hear a difference. You cannot draw general conclusions
from that alone.

That's a Spike Milligan line, to which the reply is:

If you can't hear the differences, good for you. It means you've got
more to spend on music rather than the means to play it.

No it doesn't necessarily mean that at all. You missed the other, and
far more likely reason - if you can't hear a difference, it means that
there *isn't* a difference.

If I ever did hear a difference by swapping nothing more than 2 metres
of cable, it would be so completely unexpected that I'd be wanting to
make measurements to discern exactly what was changing. First I'd want
to measure the levels of a selection of test frequencies (or better
still a frequency sweep if I could obtain the gear to do it), and then
I'd reach for a multimeter and perhaps a capacitance meter. Sooner or
later I'd expect to see some factual objective measured difference
between the cables that could explain what I was hearing.

Not quite. To the eternal shame of the Diocese of Chichester they
chickened out and only allowed the inscription to appear in Gaelic
"Duirt me leat go raibh me breoite".
