Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference?

Some would say it is more akin to religion. Lacking understanding or knowledge, one will make up an explanation to fill in the gaps. Maybe it is akin to anti-vaxxers (and climate change denial), again, most lacking knowledge, will grab onto anything that appears to support their desired world view.

wyoboy38 posts12-22-2019 1:02pmIt's like climate change debate or any politics these days--neither side will change the others' mind--but believers can share while non-believers can only bash--and i have no idea yet which camp i'm in on this !

It seems like the believers are having an upper hands at the moment.

Its called listening. 

But you go ahead. Believe what you want.

I think there is an awful lot of projection from naysayers as of late. They cling to certain bias diagnosis (from afar) and neglect the ones they fall victim to.

Fear of change can be a large predictor of one's perception to any manner of topic. The lengths one will go to to remain in their bubbles is astounding. 

The results can bring down empires, societies, religions and even audio forums.

There are also fundamentalist zealots, who insist their infallible sacred texts reveal all the truths that are to be known.

But who are the naysayers?  Are they the ones that refuse to allow their claims to be tested, or the ones who encourage the tests, even admitting to their own fallacies?  I think those honest with themselves, know who the real naysayers are. It is a generally accepted truth that those that refuse to allow their claims to be tested, that avoid all attempts at verifying their claims, and that make up excuses for why those tests won't work (and make up excuses that don't jive with accepted facts), are the ones that are not honest, at least with themselves.
