The thing is, there is WAY more information flowing through those video cables than there are through audio cables. From what I understand cables can matter when dealing with video, since it is much higher speed and higher bandwidth than audio.

It's a little easier to claim that sound is placebo effect than it is video. Anyone could see the difference in color and clarity - especially with the quick A/B we could do just by pressing a single button. I can only assume that the same is (more or less) true with audio as well. |
