Completely QEDish here. To lazy for diy. Their midrange. Look, feel and price are reasonable. And this good feeling makes the sound for me. I belong to the people who do not believe in "Kabelklang", sorry.
If you have the skill and the time (I used to build my own speaker cable, but disabilities are forcing me to go in the consumer direction). However - the price I pay is minimal compared to what others pay....$25 bucks for a 6 ft, 12 gauge power cable with all the cool looking extras is decent.I'm completely baffled by this. The cables I build look fine.
In fact, cables are the most important thing in an audio system.
And by different material they mean COPPER?Each cable is made of different material, so they must sound different. If you don't agree, you are science-deniers.

But not the same copper!! c'mon, get with the program.And by different material they mean COPPER?
Oh, and copper, and... copper??
The copper is the boring part. Apparently the dielectric, insulation, and sleeving materials make the biggest difference in sound (and price)... and don't forget the wood/metal/carbon fiber blocks indicating "directivity" and the brand logo. That's where all that R&D money goes.And by different material they mean COPPER?

Science? Science? What Science?Each cable is made of different material, so they must sound different. If you don't agree, you are science-deniers.

Um, no. Psychofoolery is a better word for it.Psychoacoustics![]()

Only the finest Chilean copper plucked from the rock at its peak ripeness and then gently hewn into the most exquisite cabling man has ever produced.But not the same copper!! c'mon, get with the program.
Cables are not acoustic devices. They are electrical in nature. The Psycho- part is just a prefix signifying your opinion of the cable's so-called "sound".Um, no. If you don't agree, you are psychoacoustics-deniers.![]()
What cables do you use in your systems?
Interconnects: cheap
Speaker cable: cheap
Coax cable: cheap
USB cable: cheap
Power cable: stock
The problem with language is that it is very limited. Consider the context. How cables sound to audiophools is intrinsically psychoacoustics or bioacoustics. I know about LCR measurements for cables.Cables are not acoustic devices. They are electrical in nature. The Psycho- part is just a prefix signifying your opinion of the cable's so-called "sound".
"Bioacoustics" implies that there is some physical reality behind the differences they supposedly hear. "Psychoacoustics" is better, as it points out that the differences are in the human mind.The problem with language is that it is very limited. Consider the context.
