TCI Cobra interconnects against Chord Chameleon
Dear all,
I have been using the adorable Chord Company interconnects and speaker
cables for a while. Has anyone reviewed TCI Cobra interconnects
against the Chameleons? If so I would like to know your experiences.
Cheers Max

Well Cobras produce snake oil but I don't know about Chameleons. Do they
change colour with the mod?

Try an audio forum. This lot here unfortunately have seen the light, and
won't be swayed from the facts.

Max as I have just posted to you on aus.hi-fi that you are on a hiding to
nowhere with this. Any reputable audio group will only have a laugh at your
expense with this question. I would suggest you do some more reading and
include Google search results on "Snake Oil" ;-)

Yup. First it wasn't blind - you knew what was connected where,
therefore all that follows is void. Second, the only way you could get
that result is if you were playing different material through the two
channels. A lesser effect would occur if you managed to wire the two
speakers out of phase with each other, but you wouldn't get perfect left
and perfect right. You would certainly get no centre, but everything
else wafting vaguely around the speaker space.

Reversed polarity in one cable.

Dear all,
I have been using the adorable Chord Company
interconnects and speaker cables for a while.
I have two adorable grand daughters.
The previous sentence makes sense, and is even a little true. Your's doesn't
and can't be.
I checked the archives and found that you posted the following about a year
back:
"Explain this - what's a mere cable got to do with adding extra bass?
As far as I know a cable is a cable with no processing happening
within it. "
How come you weren't able to hold that thought?
Has anyone reviewed TCI Cobra interconnects against the Chameleons?
So, we're talking orange-flavored versus lemon-flavored snake oil here?
Why would anybody with a brain and a life care?
If so I would like to know your experiences.
IOW Max, you're not the least interested in me as a person, just whether or
not I ever heard some certain audio cables?
Shallow or what? :-(

Yeah, this often happens with speaker cables. You inadvertently hooked one
cable up with reversed polarity as compared to the other.
