[QUOTE="AV, post: 13849, member: 472"] Here is something to think about, written by a well known audio engineer, Bruno Putzeys. "You now probably expect me to say that there can be no difference in sound as far as cables are concerned. I'm not going to say that. I've performed enough listening tests, blind and double-blind, to be certain that there are differences (though fairly subtle ones) to be heard. So what I'm saying is that normal "cable science" as outlined above just doesn't cut it. One physicist once told me that science always relies on gross oversimplification of matters and that building a truly accurate behavioral model of something as simple as a cable is almost beyond human capability, so he thought it extremely arrogant of some people to claim that the sonic difference cannot exist, simply based on the common cable model."
