Amir of ASR admitted 1 cable sounded better than the other. NOT CLICKBAIT


There is a recent thread inquiring about the Puritan PSM156, and someone lead to another product the Niagara 1200. Long story short. I come across a review of Amir admitting the "Generic" cable sound better than the Audioquest chain. 

If 1 cable can sound better than another, and Amir has admitted to it. Is there really anything left to discuss except that we have been right all along? 

 

Proof: Go to the "Listening Test" of the review.

Does anyone actually buy wire they have not auditioned, and are not returnable? I don't think anyone wants to spend lots of money on wire (or any other component) that they don't like - unless it looks super good...

I don't know guys... Using a good system high in transparency (DC Ether CX), and then state 1 cable sounds better than another. Seems as clear cut as it gets. Headphones do not interfere with the room and this is a significant advantage in terms of sound quality.

It's not by accident that Head-fi (primarily headphones) is also a forum that really love their quality cables. 

If you can't trust your hearing and must rely on measurements, then your belief is as good as how flawed the measuring process is. 

Topping dacs measure well beyond human audibility. There's no point to make anymore dacs. But somehow, they seem to be making 50 new dacs a year. Each one better than the last. 

Topping released this new Topping DX9 dac and people are saying "Guys, this is the best Topping dac ever, all the older ones that measured flawlessly, those sound sterile and harsh, this one that also measures perfectly, is MUCH better"

ASR   Has a lot of newbe idiots  I was banned for telling them the truth on their entry level gear they sure are not a sourse that’s too credible.

Here is a perfect solution to the great cable debate:

1. Buy whatever cables make you happy.

2. Don’t waste your time fretting over which cables someone else chooses to buy.

problem solved. 

I like the suggestion below but would amend it:

Here is a perfect solution to the great cable debate:

1. Ask yourself if you're willing to spend money on cables rather than something else (audio or otherwise) if you would fail a blind listening test with the cables in question.

If the answer is yes,

2. Buy whatever cables make you happy.
