A New Believer

I have listened to many systems over the years, and have never appreciated the difference speaker cables can make to a sound. In fact, I was so skeptical of the sound changes they can make that I have always not bothered with any special type of cables, generally going for generic (and dare I say it) roughly made ANY copper wire plugged in to amp and speaker. Well, imagine my surprise when I decided to do a blind test and listen to what difference cabling can make. Wow, my Vand 3A Sig's had been getting strangled! (some of you guys may want to strangle me if I told you what connects I had been using). So I am now a firm believer, cables DO make a difference.

I'm not touching this one with a 10ft pole (or cable)!

I have faith in the fact that this is an idiotic thread about a subject that has become "argumentum ad nauseam".

The original poster thinks there are sonic differences between cables. That's great, if he's happy why should I try to convince him otherwise?

Why waste everyone's time on a subject that has been argued repeatedly without ever reaching a conclusion?
I say believe what you want to believe and leave everyone else alone! We're talking music reproduction here but it's getting too close to religion for me.
