Speaker cable

[GroeneLeeuw]

Oh, the usual retort...even though it makes zero sense.

Sure, sure, whatever you say.

I’m not ever going to say that cables make a huge difference

However if you’ve got a very revealing system then I believe you can hear the difference between different interconnects and speaker cables

As mentioned I used to own TQ Ultra Black speaker cable and in my system at the time, which was very revealing, I could hear the difference

Would I use TQ Ultra Black now? No I wouldn’t. I now use NACA5 because it seems to work quite well with my Naim amp without spending a fortune

The NACA5 cost me about £350, professionally made, which I considered to be fair value as it will last me a lifetime

Could cable crap be moved to Accessories section? Please, though I can ignore it here -if not as easily. Happy Sunday...

That old chestnut! 🥱

That old chestnut! 🥱

What is a revealing system?
Surely everyone has one?
Nobody is going to admit they don't.

Well if you’ve never had a revealing system then you won’t know what one sounds like… simple stuff really

It's the go to arguement every audiophool makes in attempt to legitimise their ******** beliefs as factual

A revealing system is what is used in studios which shows up everything warts and all, and so is nothing special as that's how every system should be, but never will be as most people hate a warts an all system and usually prefer a system that sounds nice.
