but i just want for someone who doesn't have a lot of money to be carefull and realise that cables won't improve his system.
You only have your biased and flawed tests to back up your ideas and nothing more.
Maybe you have a lot of money you want sexy cables but others don't,
Agreed. And nobody is making anybody buy anything they don't want to buy. If you don't want sexy cables, then don't buy them and no, I don't have a lot of money but I do need to be entertained as life without "vim," is no life at all. Does it upset you that folks spend their money on expensive watches, sports cars, clothing, jewelery or really big houses?
they just want better sound.
And so far, what I've done to my system, has done exactly that, given me better sound.
I am having a sign up with " Be carefull on exotic cables" on it.
A sign I have no trouble with and whole heartedly agree with; "buyer beware." But where I have trouble, is folks using their bias', backed up by their flawed testing evaluation models as if they're fact when in fact, they're fiction. When somebody comes up with testing methods that take into consideration the analogue nature of the human sensory system, then you'll get my attention. Until then, I'll make up my own mind on the matter and share with others the opinion of my findings. Come on, how many times do the learned have to be proven wrong, before you anti-cable guys learn to walk a bit slower in your pronouncements and condemnations of those who disagree with you?
Over the last couple of decades, I've run my own tests, in my own fashion. The difference between you guys and your phony DBT and what I've done, I've worked with the innocents of children and measured their responses to changes. The beauty of children, they don't know what's what so they have no ax to grind and they're not out to please me either as I just play what I play and then asked them what they think. I'm careful to not feed them hints as in this is what I expect. I don't try to fool them by not presenting them with changes. And yes, I control my body language. They haven't a clue what's going on. Based upon their response comments, you can tell the validity of the changes they're discussing. Try getting some six and eight year olds together and see what you come-up with. My opinion, you'll be surprised.
How much benefit will be taken by a set of cables? That's subjective reasoning. How much to spend and how far to push the envelope, that's an individual decision which each person needs to answer for themselves. In the USA, some 40k people are killed in automobile accidents each year. I'd submit that automobiles are a major threat to America's safety when compared to the dire warnings regarding the shenanigans of cable manufactures. Nobody says to not buy and drive a car because they're a death trap. In the US, medical practitioners are responsible for about a 100k deaths each year, but nobody says don't go to medical practitioners because there's a chance you'll be killed. Medicine? I've seen medicine get a positive nod with only a twenty or thirty percent improvement in the trial group. The point, you anti-cable guys are aggrandizing your altruistic warnings when compared to real threats and real science, in day-to-day life that you could be banging the warning gong about. But you don't.
Trust me when I write, no rational person is going go into cable buying with ignorance as their guide. You "think" they are, but they're not. And trust me, folks spend according to both what their budget allows and base continuation of the behavior on the reward they're getting for the expenditure. What you and others are missing or don't want to accept, we're not babe's in the woods, waiting to be fleeced by the big bad cable wolves. And I find that proven science is constantly being proven wrong and taught thinking is changed far to often to put my complete and total faith in science. Especially an aspect of science that can be spotted for the con that it is, from half a world away.
