You would not then be surprised what really bad design of signal cables with unstable audiphool grade amps with weird impedance and other really substandard electrical design can do :) Some part of audiophooldom are a kind of self-fulfilling, I bet there is equipment that sound radically different with different cables ;)( before it burns out when oscillation or something ). If you like RFI/EMI unscreened cables like some Nordost,Kimber and Goertz must mate "really" well with some extreme bandwith stuff (the holy slewrate ), The idiocy off unscreened signal cable IS probably an attempt to make cables that are truly "different " ? But with normal modern op-amp or transistor based design with sane impedances and sane bandwidths and "normal" cable lengths and "good" cables it would not be possible to discerns any difference , and yet the audiphools says that they can hear sonic characteristics of different -metals- ! nutters . -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
