I normally support your skepticism but this time you are turning your argument into one of those that claim accuracy without showing it, your argument is like measurement data, irrelevant to my ears, however, this time its totally unfounded and non scientific which makes it even more worthless and with this you tell a lot of your insecurities and most importantly that you care about cables. I dont understand your necessity of playing cool in this forum, it totally nullifies your stance. -- GuyDebord Reference3A RoyalMaster monitors biwired with van den Hul Inspiration, REL Strata5.
