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.

I leave for a couple hours and look what happens. No single good argument for or agin. I guess I was asking for too much. Lots of tenth grade personal attacks, tho’. And a whole lotta fanny patting by the naysayers. At least that’s something. Let the inquisition continue. The professor doesn’t seem to want to debate, for all his posturing. 😛 Just repeating his same old mantra.

@ prof

"and very slightly tweaked it, say increasing volume by 3dB"

Slightly!? That is simply hilarious. Its sorta the equivalent of saying one should go into a dark room and turn the light on and off to test your sight.

Well, at the very least, this certainly helps explain your position in this discussion.
