I thought the left turn was taken when the chaos theory was invoked. I was having fun with the silliness of it.

So you are actually saying that you hear differences in all the cables you have tried. I knew it!

Oh man, you are such a drama queen. Take my posts for what you will. I'm not going to allow you to work me into a frenzy again with your arrogant and condescending "calm, on-point observations". I guess your "experience and knowledge" are just too much for me.

Hi

Yea my equipment is;

NW-HD1 Atrac player- 256kps compression
Little Micro Dot +
Sennheiser 595’s

The interconnects are A) the original mini to mini interconnect as supplied by Little Dot- thin copper and a solid silver AudioLineOut cable.

The headphones and amp seem to have had enough time to burn-in.

There is a very significant difference between the SQ from the two interconnects.

If someone plays 30 seconds of Black Dog or Rock N Roll by Led Zep I can tell you with my eyes shut which interconnect is which 9 times out of 10.

It might be easier to tell the difference between these two interconnects because of the synergy of the equipment. The amp and headphone are known to be polite/neutral and the interconnects are very different from one another.

Given I do not know why there is significant SQ difference between the two, the above is nothing more than a possible/a theory…..speculation.

From your signature- our equipment is different, in fact the only thing I see that we have in common is the little dot micro+

I don't believe I was blaming you, merely saying that I won't allow you to put me in that state. I know that I have a short temper. Are you aware of your faults?

EDIT: By the way, nice work using an "irrelevant quote taken out of context to deliberately bait me".

I'm an ex-car audio nut, and I noticed the difference between cheap cable, Monster cable 400, to 300, to 200 series cable, to imported (from where, clueless) solid silver custom cabling done by my shop. Both varied interconnects and cabling. It's crap you do when the shop is slow, and you wanna see if there really is any difference.

I have no idea how much of a difference there is in portable audio-which is why I have a thread asking about it, but I'm anxious.

I'm also not stupid. If I had to pay retail of ANY of the high-end cabling I had, there'd be no way in hell I'de pay for the uber cabling....well MAYBE, I'm anal about that kinda stuff though

But strictly from a monetary standpoint, I think you can't go wrong with dece quality copper, as to me, it's not TOTALLY worth the difference in price.
