I'm not disputing the difference between expensive oxygen free pure copper (add other extra fancy other stuff here) cables and the cheap stuff. And I absolutely believe that there is a difference in QUALITY of cabling as far as durability, etc. I'm just disputing that there actually is an audible difference. I will fight to the death your right to pay $200 per foot for expensive electrical cord but I wish there was a way to prove that it actually makes much of a difference to what actually comes out of your drivers. In my (somewhat limited) experience it just doesn't. I'd like to think I have fairly discerning ears but I've yet to be able to A/B some cables and hear distinct differences. The ONLY time I actually heard a difference was at Ultimate Electronics about 8 or 9 years ago...but I caught the salesman bumping up the EQ when I tried the speakers that were hooked up to his fancy Monster cables. LOL Let's talk about visual differences with really expensive HDMI cables and cheap ones.
hope that clears it up!
Agreed, I guess it depends on whether you warrant the differences to be worth your money for! I have some friends that tried my DHC nucleotide and agreed there was audible difference with their CIEMS, but the difference did not warrant them spending the money on a new cable! Personally for me, my IEMs get very sibilant with the TWag and TWcu, as compared to the 93spec or the DHC neuclotide! Which is why I would warrant the cost of the cable for an improvement in the sound sig!hope that clears it up!
In other news, as an update the 93spec is officially released and cables have started being sent to those who have ordered so far! So do look out for more reviews on in on Head Fi! Hope you enjoyed mine!
