Default The sound of speaker cables..insights

I think you will find they have banned the discussion because they
have degenerated into endless, pointless debate just as here.


It appears that the discussion has then turned to weighing one pointless
debate, being the debate as to whether speaker cables as a rule even have an
audible effect on sound quality; against another pointless debate, being the
debate as to which speaker cables sounds better.

And they have decided that the hobby and/or interest in recorded sound
has more to offer than that.


Ironically, the so-called objectivist position is exactly that: The audio
hobby has more to offer than endless arguments over trivial items like
speaker cables. While the so-called subjectivists waste their time splitting
hairs, mainstream audio has moved on to situations where neither speaker
cables nor power amplifiers are relevant.

So they have banned the dbt debates about speaker cables and amplifiers,

et. al.

Same basic situation.

Ironically, I sit here typing while I enjoy listening to music loaded on a
Nomad Jukebox 3, without the use of either power amplifiers or speaker
cables. Now playing: Toscanini conducting the NBC symphony orchestra playing
Movement 1 of Beethoven's 9th symphony. Yes, mid-1950's MONOPHONIC
recordings!

The horror, the humanity!

;-)

The love of music...

In all seriousness, while some audiophiles rattle on and on and on about
power amplifiers and speaker cables, modern music lovers have moved on,
adopting new technologies that dispense with both.

BTW, I have both the Toscanini and Walter Beethoven cycles stored on my NJB3
in uncompressed (.wav file) format with plenty of room left over for many
other (about 50 CDs ) wonderful recorded works such as the Raxos 3-disc
cycle of Paganini guitar and violin music, and the Billy Joel 4-disc boxed
set.
