Thank you. I think you intervened already to keep us in line (I am not very tolerant of personal attacks, so responded in kind 😬🤣).

Sums up everything wrong with hobbyists/audiophiles, it's not a bloody religion, or at least shouldn't be

People were happy, until the Roman Emperor rucked up, decided he was the dog's bollox, and amassed a following that hangs on his thumbs up/thumbs down way of doing things. Any product that gets a thumbs down is immediately set upon, slagged off, ripped apart, and ridiculed by his sheep who have never actually heard the product themselves. Most of the time, even the Emperor doesn't listen to it. He creates a witch hunt for anything he classes as not perfect.

So yeah, let's do the religion thing.

He's no different to an audio enthusiast tinkering away in his shed, it's just that he's presented himself in a way he wants others to see him. We've had plenty of those in this industry over the years, offering free Kool-aid to those who will listen and follow the doctrine. Most come and go.

To put things in perspective, until verifiable evidence is provided that cables (Assuming they are the correct rating for the job in hand) make a difference to the sound, then all claims they do, are purely opinion, which is fine, as everyone is entitled to an opinion. (Just don't post opinion as fact)
In the end it comes down to the question, do you believe they make a difference? if so then go ahead and buy an expensive cable as its your choice and your choice alone.
