[QUOTE="SeanS, post: 1141255, member: 849"] I have so many biases :ROFLMAO:... I let my daughters and wife actually be the final judge on sound quality.. they are so good. The other day I bought some speaker cables... and then I though things sounded bad but i put it down to me (surely not the new cable).. then my daughter / wife walked in and said this sounds .. bad, my wife said it sounds like someone trying to blow up a balloon through a straw. My daughter just said it sounded so good a few nights ago, now it sounds..... crap. I was biased to think a "reputable / 5 star cable " could not be. .. nasty (boomy, muddled mids, treble about 5cm in front of speakers... but separate from the rest, scratchy... initially impressive) (sidenote.. there must be millions of kilometers of this around the globe doing a worse job than twin & earth, similar to plastic in the oceans, very very very terrible) But those who have a cable bias / or don't will flame me, and I will criticize them through my own warped lens.. :) [/QUOTE]
