Cable Snake Oil Antidote
https://www.amazon.com/General-Wire-GIDDS-214122-Snake-Gallon/dp/B001AT9GP0/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?ie=UTF8&a...It's $48.61 a gallon. That should be a lifetime supply. Go get some.  
Delete "Cable Snake Oil Anecdote" Thread!
Huh.... Haven't really looked at that one. Maybe I should chime in.  
Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?
@geoffkait You clearly have no clue what you're talking about.  
Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?
Benzman, it's real simple. It's vastly more likely that those who think they hear differences in Ethernet cables are experiencing a mental phenomenon than there's some difference in the cable. If you buy into this snake oil, then do you also think... 
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
I'm with @georgehifi . In essence, what they're doing is degeneration the snot out of the output stage to keep it very well behaved. Not a bad option for low impedance, benign speakers. My old ESS sounded great on a Mc.  My F5 has a very different... 
How loud is too loud
I like the FFT Spectrum Analyzer app. It makes cool waterfall plots that are easier to read that a rapidly fluctuating line.  
Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?
Foggythink, a highly resolving system does reveal the differences in Ethernet cables. A highly flawed system does.  
Sound differences between Copper and Aluminum Bus Bar Electrical Panels
I'm not sure what your whole point is. I don't see why I couldn't figure that out or fix it. I'm hardly afraid of 120 volts. I installed all kinds of smart switches on live wiring at my friend's place back in January. A $5 AM pocket radio would fi... 
Phase inverting preamps
@herman I understand what you're saying. I meant a spacial domain. Waves can be modeled quite nicely with no time considerations.  
Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?
@astewart8944 .....but gravity is questionable. Something is happening. We can accurately describe the action of the phenomenon. But nobody really knows what it is. That's what I don't understand about the point your trying to make. You made a bad... 
Phase inverting preamps
@elizabeth No... I'm not agreeing with you. It's entirely possible to build a succession of gain stages that don't invert at all. For instance, an input stage running in common gate modes will give you some voltage gain and buffer better going int... 
Phase inverting preamps
@herman Yeah, you're technically right. I get it. The terms shouldn't be used interchangably. That said, phase isn't described in terms of units of delay. It's described in terms of degrees of rotation for a given moment irrespective of time. The ... 
Phase inverting preamps
Just had a bit more time to read over this....@herman For the intent of this discussion, you're really splitting hairs with the terms "phase" and "polarity". I signal that's experiencing 180 degrees of phase shift is the EXACT same thing as invert... 
Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?
I didn't even bother to shield the 600VA transformer in my amp. And why? Because Nelson Pass doesn't bother to. And it makes virtually no difference. Twisting is generally the safeguard against crosstalk between signal pairs. For the audio range a... 
Sound differences between Copper and Aluminum Bus Bar Electrical Panels
Or.... You could just build an RF probe for way less than a thermal imaging camera costs.
