I would agree that the viewpoint discussed is a minority amongst active
posters on -this- forum, but I suspect a majority in the population at
large.

I take the point about most cables being "unproveably different", but
for the majority of people I suspect there is no room for absolute
objectivity and many entirely subjective and even non-performance
related criteria come first when choosing what product to buy. A lot of
the time it's as simple as "what do they have in stock when I need
something?".

I'm all for arguing against hifi vendors and magazines misrepresenting
products (such as the appalling nonsense regarding a certain company's
power lead demos that was discussed a few weeks ago), but I don't see a
need to beat up normal forum members. If the intent is to help people to
change their views this is not the most effective way of doing it.
