DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?

Yes they do.  I’m not here to advocate for any particular brand but I’ve heard a lot and they do matter. High Fidelity reveal cables, Kubala Sosna Elation and Clarity Cable Natural. I’m having a listening session where all of them is doing a great job. I’ve had cables that were cheaper in my system but a nicely priced cable that matches your system is a must.  I’m not here to argue what I’m not hearing because I have a pretty good ear.  I’m enjoying these three brands today and each is presenting the music differently but very nicely. Those who say cables don’t matter. Get your ears checked.  I have a system that’s worth about 30 to 35k retail.  Now all of these brands are above 1k and up but they really are performing! What are your thoughts.

Painting is an active process, making something from, sort of, nothing. Listening is a receptive process. They are incomparable. Painting is not your inborn activity. Listening is. You have to develop/learn the skill of painting. You are born listening.

Yes, you are born breathing. Unfortunately, you cannot learn to breathe better. You can learn how to control your breathing pattern to some very limited extent, but it will not be better in any way, as far as gas exchange is considered which is the purpose of breathing.


EDIT: Along with that, breathing is also an activity. It is not a purely receptive event. Comparing senses with muscle activity is not the best example
