I agree with all of the above wholeheartedly. IMO this whole business of spending as much money on cables as on your major components is one of the biggest hoaxes perpetrated on audiophiles. Same as the CDs sound better, magic bricks, alien pods, cryogenic molecule aligned magic gizmos, alarm clocks which have undergone special treatment and mysteriously make equipment sound better. Incidently all of the above were highly touted by reviewers at one time or another. Try this test for yourself, take a system and play a recording of something you are familiar with (suggest acoustic instruments, piano, and voice NOT ROCK) use inexpensive cables and then switch to more and more expensive cables. Try to follow a certain instrument and then another and another at relatively modest volumes. I am certain that you will hear little difference as you switch cables.
IMO, some decent wire is good enough.
Always trust your ears not the BS written by others. AND DO NOT BUY IF YOU CANT HEAR THE DIFFERENCE.
