A New Believer

Lord, my burden is great

you have a stereo system. You decide for some reason that the sound you hear can be 'better'. You must have a shortcoming that you can describe i.e. lack of a certain freq response, no soundstage, noise/distortion, lack of dynamic range etc.....
1.why would you conclude the cable is at fault?
2. which cable do you buy? do they have what problems the cable fixes printed on the package?
3.If cable #1 $500 improves your sound does that mean cable#2 $600 will improve it more?
4. can you reach a point where you undo some of the earlier improvements?
5. do the makers say what effect their product will have on your system?
just curious, do you believe that lifting the cables off the carpet improves the sound?

You really DO have a hard time listening don't ya? I'm outta here.

Lifting the cables off the carpet not only helps the sound, it costs nothing.

I believe these folks really hear a difference. I also believe I don't. Quite frankly, I'm jealous as hell. I'm 52 and my hearing and eye sight just can't be as good as they used to be. I also enjoy single malt scotch, but for the life of me, I don't taste any of the fruits, herbs and spices some of the reviewers claim to taste. (They all taste different nuances in the same scotch by the way) I just enjoy it for what I get out of it. If I told you a beautiful sunset and a naked model in my lap made the scotch taste better, you wouldn't laugh at me, right?

I think some of the items we discuss on this board are like the sunset and model. Maybe the scotch doesn't taste better, but the experience is more enjoyable.

Don't leave the forum, you have a lot of support for your thoughts and questions, if not your technique.
