So sad that you actually believe that. Because I did too until I actually got a nice one (and you can read some of my old posts here which proves that I was ignorant to cables), and then a much better one from Virtual Dynamics which is one of the best pieces of equipment in my system. But if you want to stick to those ideals, it's really unfortunate because you will never know how truly amazing a headphone system (or any hi-fi system) can actually sound with high-end interconnects, power cords, and power conditioners. And if you came over to my house and listened to my system with a stock digital cable and then to my Master LE 2.0, your balls would be doing backflips. And if you couldn't hear the difference, you'd either be deaf or need a lot more experience learning about high-end audio and training your ears.
