| A fresh approach to cable analysis And somebody answered and Dave was right at it... The burden is actually on the person who wants to prove something, not anyone else. Sorry, that distinction doesn't work. It's a logical fallacy and has a name: shifting the burden of proof. ... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis Dave — known as raueda1 on another forum — just posted his thoughts in a way I wish I could have phrased myself. Enjoy. ----------- I think there’s a different angle here that hasn't been explored much and may be more useful than simply asking... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis I want to offer something that may surprise some people in this thread: a genuine concession. The cable/crossover interaction is a legitimate variable that I think deserves more credit than the objectivist side typically gives it. The vast majo... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @goodlistening64 Thanks for the kind words — and the cable offer, genuinely appreciated! But I’m happy with what I have. I looked at that AQ earlier and like it. But not enough 😉😉 On the Lewis point: I wasn’t bringing religion into the argument... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @seymour-krelborn The Shunyata medical citation is actually my argument, not yours — they're used in medical settings precisely because their EMI shielding properties are measurable and documented. That's the objectivist position exactly. And y... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @jafox C.S. Lewis, of all people, put it best in Mere Christianity: "If you think you are not conceited, it means you are very conceited indeed." The same principle applies here. The absolute certainty that one is immune to bias, to marketing... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis These latest responses confirm one thing clearly: people who believe in cables, believe in cables. Full stop. And honestly, that belief is self-reinforcing — it manifests as a genuinely heightened listening experience and real enjoyment. I’m not h... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @seymour-krelborn You’re actually making my point for me — there isn’t a single well-controlled double blind test that reliably confirms audible differences between cables. Not one. With full methodology or without. Zero. So why not? That’s the qu... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @bruce19 hence its on the first page "AI can make mistakes", I let it write it itself....it often spouts doubious claims with total confidence, when challenged, it apologizes....lol...its scary how "smart" and at the same time totally stupid it is... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis @cleeds I’m not in a position to throw anyone under the bus — am I certain? Yes. Do I know? No. When I said "not unique," I was referring to the marketing fluff of most if not all cable guys. Read the first section of my attached doc for conte... | |
| A fresh approach to cable analysis I want to add a small but telling contribution to bruce19’s original idea. I recently opened up a cable I had purchased. What I found inside was an industrial-grade cable with instantly recognizable, fully documented physical characteristics. ... | |
| Advice on speaker cables. Stranded cables give up accuracy and precision. Unless you want such tone control because it masks mask a flaw of the chain or you just like e.g boomy base, go solid core. DNM or Acoustic Revive Av-spc | |

| Network cable rabbit hole haha, now it gets religious when people start swearing and defending their bias ;-) stay cool, I dont have all the answers, I just have good questions for which you did not provide any conclusive answers. I guess I keep searching and asking... |
