I have to agree, the few EE friends I got would disagree with you. In fact you are the first person with electrical engineering background I have ever heard of or read that made a statement like this.
Anyways, lets keep this to a few lines which you use and why. The debate over whether cables already being hammered in the Cable forums and well the past 30 years, so called audiophiles/golden ears vs everybody else.

I don't honestly believe Senn even considered aftermarket cables in designing the HD 565 or 580, they considered easily replacable cables for professional users, just like the K702 has, or various pro-line Ultrasones, so because those are removable, they're also a legitimate problem? and a sign of manufacturer incompetence? interesting. |
