I have actually been on Randi's website over cables and speakers that claim a 2 some-odd-gig response figure. :blush:
A buddy sent that to me.
I'm going to start making cable out of killer RF cable, my costs will be low and I can back up RF rejection, etc with real figures. ****, with hollow core Heliax I can blow the skin-effect people out of the water!
I guess if you are rich...who cares if it sounds better or not...you have the money to buy what ever is supposed to be best and your American Express Platinum will tell your ears that it is the best.
On the other hand...
For the guy that makes sacrafices to buy $50K in stereo equipment....Just think how many live concerts he can attend for that amount?
i love the guys that comment that they can hear the difference between these cables, and with the million prize, they do nothing to try to win it. seriously, they are fooling themselves.
"speaker cables do sound different. After some break in time, different cables have different characteristics if you have good hearing to hear the difference."
there you have it guys. cables have break in time. i read it on the internet so it must be true.
Handmade cables simply cannot match the repeatability or precision of cables made by machine. Handmade is something to look for when buying a piece of art, not an electrical component.
Now I have to pull my cables out and break them in. Anyone know whats best should you just run pink noise for 100hrs through them.LOL
I am going to throw all my DIY cables in the trash because they suck.LOL

Come on guys just buy them after you install them the hair on the back of your neck will stand up. That is what makes the difference between good cables and audiophile cables.
These are the best sounding cables you can buy. But beware, make sure you have the arrows pointed in the right direction.....HU=====> Amps and not the other way around or your amp WILL make your HU louder!!!!!!
if your amp makes your HU louder, then wouldn't that send a louder signal to the amp? have a Y cable so the amp just keeps making a louder signal for the HU to send to the amp for the amp to send to the speakers.
****, sorry I forgot about that. :blush: I always add an inline fan on my signal wires to help the 'lectrons speed up to the max 'lectrond speed down the signal. Gotta watch the speed, otherwise you get really fast SQ.
On a more serious note, I've always wanted to try out MIT's Oracle cables... at least in the home. I wonder if I could notice a difference. Does anyone here have any experience with those?
Here is where I get a lot of flak. Yes, I am standing up for the audiophile community. Proudly.
Point #1 - Cables absolutely make a difference. Period. I have A-B tested crappy cables with "ok" monster cables and there was an audible difference. So whoever says lamp wire can stack up.... no way. Try as you may, I was a skeptic, my ears don't lie. It makes a difference. I'm sure people would laugh at the great length many of you go to to deaden your car or position your tweeters to sound just right.
Point #2 - To whoever made the joke about the arrows on the cable. Those arrows do have a point, and the grounding is different on one end vs. the other. It's why they are there. You can use them in any direction, won't make a ton of difference. As i understand it just disperses the noise into the chassis instead of into the signal itself.
Point #3 - If you can afford a full system of Wilson Audio X2's or Dyn Evidence with Krell Master Series or Halcro Amps, odds are that even an 8' pair of Transparent Opus speaker wire @ a cool $30,000 isn't hurting your pocket book either. If you spend that much on a system, whats another $30k to make sure it sounds it's best. If they can afford it, more power to them...and leave them alone. Many people try to rationalize "well that's a nice car!" Guess what, this guy/girl probably has a Ferrari or 2 in the garage already anyways.
IMO, there is a difference between $80 Monster Cable and $2.99 Dollar Store cable. But I doubt there's a difference between an $80 Monster Cable and a $7k Pear cable. I mean, it's just copper and insulation. How advanced can it be?
Actually, I'm 100% positive you couldn't. The only thing that was tired here was your poor attempt to insult my intelligence. If you're trying to inflate your epeen you're going to need to work a little harder than that.
