It's OK - even though I didn't say it, I've heard the same differences between wood species when used as cable risers. I don't even try to explain it, as it makes little sense to me.

When power conditioners first became super-popular, I (and many others, sometimes in print) noticed that the sonic imprint of a particular power conditioner tended to be the same - no matter where it was used in one's system - if used to power your preamp or your turntable motor. This one *might* be due to a "hand-waving" explanation of the power conditioner affecting the AC mains quality in that entire branch of the circuit - do you remember the power conditioner that was simply a large inductor in a box that was plugged in *parallel* to your equipment (instead of in series)? I forget the name but it had a logo of some HV power lines on a badge on the side. They were popular (and somewhat controversial) for years - one attraction is that they were less expensive than most "traditional" power conditioners.
