Seconded. I am willing to accept there are things out there we can't measure but we can nonetheless perceive. Cables don't appear to be one of them, they are very well understood...if there were any small-scale variations that had large-scale effects electrical delivery systems would be impossible.
Speakers on the other hand, are much more mystical/magical IMHO. They are mechanically and electrically very simple but you can't just bash one together and expect good sound. There is really an art to speakers, even though we've been building them for about 100 years now. Volumes and volumes have been written about them and basic designs really haven't changed but that still doesn't mean a company can manufacture a speaker that people universally like. There are things going on we just can't measure yet, and our brains and how they interpret sound are the limiting factor. -- Mark Lanctot 'Sean Adams' Response-O-Matic checklist, patent pending!'
