Do speaker cables really make a difference ?

  I see the “ lamp cord comment “ by the same contributor.  So do you still run the thin red, white and yellow interconnects? According to you , it’s just wire. Why do you roll tubes ? They’re just metal and glass.  Some poor village is deprived of an idiot …. Go home. 

Type of speaker cable and models within a brand have sonic differences. And it really matters.  

Absolutely they can but only worth it perhaps once you get pretty much all the rest right first.

I thought this subject was a “dead horse “ too but, oh well.

My Acoustic Research AR 3a’s were in ‘74 ordered with AR speaker cables and they turned out to be lamp cord, 50’ each I recall.

Upgraded to KHorns in ‘81 and kept the cords, believing, like Paul Klipsch, that finely made, expensive speaker cables were bull****.

My brother gave me some unwanted, not-so-high-end Monster cables and I was quite honestly floored by how incredibly better the sound quality became…...placing me firmly in the believer camp.

For me speaker cables made a difference. And if you’re curious I encourage you to experiment. Then you can be the judge.
