Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Re: technical justification for high end speaker cables

Dan,

As far as I know, it does not exist. If you find it, PLEASE let me know.

We will not find it in the cable asylum, since any attempt to have a reasoned discussion about a scientific approach is met with at best pseudo-science, and at worst crys of heresy. Be careful, and not mention DBTs in cable asylum or you will be banned!

Basically, the argument from many at the cable asylum is evaluating the sound of cables is beyond today's science, and we need to trust our ears. Yep, there is something mysterious in them wires we just can't understand. WAY too complex for modern man's understanding of the universe.

Makes you wonder how we can rely on all them other electrical devices that use cables don't it? In fact, I have gone back to an abacus since I can't trust the ability of cables in my computer to accurately conduct an electrical signal anymore.

This has led to a situation where getting any reasoned evaluation of how different measurable properties of cables will affect sound impossible. So, one is on a merry go round of try and buy, attempting to find a match, and the cable companies smile all the way to the bank.

Good luck in your quest. Please post back if you are successful.
