I'd give an arm and leg to see such imagery used in audio hardware reviews. But I really don't know just how minute cable differences are supposed to be because I've only experienced two aftermarket cables, a moon-audio blue dragon headphone cable and audio-gd custom power cable, and some mutilated stock cables. I know my cables sound only minutely different under certain circumstances, like if I take out my power conditioner (something not everybody uses), but when I put it back in the difference isn't so micro anymore.
