Speaking about professionals working, it still blows my mind the kind of strange rhetoric people attached to the idea of unobtainium this and that when confronted to the argument that no professionals in sound reproduction (no sound production, no concert, no movie nothing) ever cared about the quality-of-sound-whatever of their cables.
Moreover, all serious brands of anything to produce music uses engineers to design their products, cause it's an engineering issue first (then a issue of reproducibility and cost of production and design/fashion one and all the way down there a marketing one).
Few people I know working in the industry of sound production are first and foremost proud of their room acoustics. Some dream about better speakers, most don't care. When they speak about speakers, it's not brand they speak about nor how sweet the low medium or revealing the bass is.
Then comes research, both with numbers and double blind test to finally get those snake oil guys out of business and it is the guys who spent money on those meaningless products that all come with bombed chests to protect them. One of the way being to call ASR cult followers and so much nonsense about trusting our ears in non controlled rooms, one speaker at a time.
I have not yet met a cult followers who, when cornered, doesn't call the people trying to help them cult followers. It's literally how any cult works, I know.
To me it is more sensible to believe that we are govern by lizard people living underground poisoning our air with contrail and poisoning our water with whatever. Cause if you look, we know our water and air are polluted and I am unaware of a way to know for good they are no lizard people (I am breathing and drinking so I guess me too cant see them manipulating my every thoughts).
However, sound and a little hifi system, no matter how simple or complicated, are fairly simple things.
I guess what I am trying to say is: if you wanna believe anything, could you please make sure it is a believable belief? They are plenty of them! After life whatever, believable, no authority on the matter. Karma, believable, no authority on the matter. God? Who can say? Even ghosts, vampires and lizard people, they all could be smarter than us and hid on the dark side of the moon with tech we dont know about etc... But freaking hifi cables? It is so lame. And expensive. Better way to entertain ourselves than with lame, proved to be wrong wanna be a bridge between magic and science nonsense.
