In Reply to: I did it! ...RE: Sound Quality Changes caused by Sata cables. posted by jad on July 12, 2014 at 10:24:16:
Another possible explanation of "hearing more detail" comes from having played the same recording multiple times. Each time you listen you are starting with a different memory of what you heard before plus you are undoubtedly directing your attention different places. Hence this might account for hearing additional detail.
If there is a real improvement it will become apparent over time as you listen to a range of recordings. After doing so you should go back to the old cables and see if the sound regresses. You may also discover that details that you heard with the new cables are now obvious with the old ones. This doesn't mean that that the new cables might not have revealed more detail, just that making good subjective judgements can be extremely difficult at times.
