No, It's not that I can't be arsed to engage any further (unless you was referring to yourself) it's that no-one can actually provide evidence to backup their claims. Ever hear of HDTV Test? They use proper measurement equipment and show us the statistics and breakdown of each TV's performance...

I started this thread for a genuine reason, to what else aside from thickness, influences the sound and if so, by how much? Now I'm looking for factual conclusive evidence. You know, resistance, ohms, formula's etc - scientific calculations that can be repeated and measured and shown in a real...

Thank you! At least someone who see's sense. Our cognitive sense can be fooled and all to easily. If not fooled, then influenced as you put it, may be a better term to use. If It can't be scientifically measured and validated then it's all BS in my books.

The problem with 'just listening' to cable is people can get themselves into the placebo effect which is apparent in your post regarding HDMI cables. As I said before, HDMI is a digital cable that sends a set amount of binary data from it's source to it's destination. You can't hear more or less...

The Qed wire you mention is the same thickness as what you already have. The 6mm is the total thickness including jacket. So it is probably unlikely you will notice any difference from the 2.5mm cable you have already. I wouldn't bother with bi-wiring. Also, I hear Bi-wiring doesn't make a...

The Aviano 6's retailed at around the £500 mark, I bought them for £350 brand new a few years ago. The Kef Q900's retail for £1200 and there was a clearance deal recently at Superfi where they were going for £700 brand new. I was looking at the Dali Zensor 7's, but the Kef's were larger in size...

Thanks for the info, I am on the more skeptical side of the claims these manufacturer's make, but if If I'll lose out on clarity by going for a basic cable, then I'll buy the hifi cables. Regarding thickness, I know that longer runs will require a higher thickness, but I also thought that a...

Apologies if it feels that way, but I'm not trying to stir sh*t up, I'm just seeking answers. A lot of manufacturers shove marketing terminology in our faces in which they may be 100% true to how they've manufacturered it, but doesn't make a blind bit of difference to the end product. As I...

these manufacturers are (believe or not)trying to help us get the best out of are equipment and for me is quite important.you have a very capable amp and speakers and for me I would invest in speaker wire and power leads.alot of people on here don't believe in it but I'm sure that they don't...

Hey dude, yeah the new speakers are great thanks! I'm loving them at the moment although I was listening to some bass heavy music and whilst they're very nice and calming, I can't help but think they'd have more power and low end grunt using thicker cable. However I don't want to spend a fortune...

So I've just upgraded my speakers to the Kef Q900's from the lower end Mordaunt Short Aviano 6's. I'm using Van Damme's Tour grade Bi-wire speaker cable to my Yamaha RXA2050 AV Reciever. This cable has a cross secton area of 2.5mm and I was looking to get a thicker cable, preferably at 6mm...

I still find the aesthetics to be 'meh' but in terms of size and power that's exactly what I'm looking for! Why aren't floorstanders like that anymore? Current ranges from all manufacturer's are quite small, it's like someone stuck them in skinny jeans. I have the Mordaunt Short Aviano 6 which...

I really appreicate your help, but I'm afraid those SX-4's aren't for me. They may sound amazing, but if I'm making an investment like this to keep them for a long time, I also want them to look good too and personally the aesthetics on those don't do it for me. I've never been a fan of the...

It's a shame that big floorstanders cost so much more. Surely it can't be worth £4k to make a wooden box slightly bigger and add more slightly bigger drive units to it. I've heard good things about Tannoy, but damn they're such ugly designs. If they weren't so bland then I'd probably consider...

So I'm currently looking to replace my existing front speakers in my surround system which are the Mordaunt Short Aviano 6's. Originally my plan was to go with the MA Bronze 6's but after speaking to someone in RicherSounds they said going to the Bronze 6's would be more of a sidestep than a...
