I must write a few words in defence of "wire is wire".
Wire, let us say 20 ft of 12 gage speakercable, has a
virtually flat frequency response and zero distortion.
That doesn't leave much room for believing it colors
sound.
It's flat up to about 100khz or so. Above that the self
inductance and the skin effect contribute to roll off. Some of the
esoteric cables are flat to well above
100khz. This is not important to me, but it appears to
be important to some.
It's very important if you're entertaining bats and some
other small creatures.
Or listening to Gamelan music.
Note that Harry fails to grasp the well-known fact that musical instruments
that create ultrasonics abound. The rare item is even one human who can
consciously perceive them.
