Ever hear a power cable make a huge difference?

I just had to share this. I went to synergistic research the other day to get some cables re-terminated. I saw some power cords on the floor and decided to ask about them. Ted, said they were all prototypes, would I like to listen. He brought me into the demo room and played some great music. He switched out the preamp power cord for one of the prototypes and man was it noticably better. Then, he left and came back into the room with a big smile on his face. He pulled a cable from the back that I swear was just recently built. He confirmed that no one had listened to it yet. He put the new power cable on the preamp and...................NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!! It was unbelieveable what a difference I heard. I could not believe how much bigger the sound stage grew, better focus, detail, and faster tighter bass. I had him switch the PC in and out because I just could not believe what I heard. Then he said "lets make it better." He brought it to his Tesla machine and gave it a quantum tunneling. He put it back in the system and to my surprise it was un believably better then what I had just heard. It now made the whole system easily sound 3 times as good. I just could not believe my ears. Then I had to know, how much could I get this cable for. I would think at least $2000 if not $3000. Nope, this will probably go for $500. Well Ted, sign me up for a few of those bad boys.

Newbee, isn't a question of whose freedom of speech is being transgressed? They would have some, if not all, tweaks judged as "fraud" and a ripoff without any demonstration that this is so but rather just on their judgment and mock others who think otherwise.

I guess it is just my opinion that such positions do not contribute to any exchange of information and that I should just limit myself to such statements. God knows I am not affecting any of their opinions and am merely generating heat.

My problem is that after years of participating in peer review and teaching the scientific method with critiquing students' arguments about how they might assess an hypothesis, I have difficulties not making "judgmental opinions about others thought processes" and arguments.

All claims about magical power cords and interconnects should be viewed with great skepticism.

In other words, try them and listen. Only after listening in one's personal system can one decide if there is value in upmarket wire.

Everyone's gear, room and ears are different. Nuances may or may not be audible in every situation.

What? And ruin all the fun for those who delight in circular argument, name calling, character assassination and "prove it to me in a chat forum" pointless debate?

What then, are all the professional "net-jousters" going to do with all their additional free time and pent up frustration...listen to music!? Nahhh. :-)

if indiduals had thicker skin or weren't so concerned about what others do or say, there would not be endless arguments of a philosophical nature which don't accomplish anything, other than venting opinions.
